AbstractNineteen patients with colorectal adencarcinoma, three with cholangiocarcinoma, two with hepatocellular carcinoma, and one with carcinoid were treated with hepatic artery infusion chemotherapy. An implantable pump system was used to deliver floxuridine (FUdR), starting at 400 mg for 2 weeks with 2 weeks of rest. Eleven of 15 (73%) measurable patients with colorectal carcinoma responded. Of 6 complete responses, 4 were documented by laparotomy, including 1 with choleangiocarcinoma. Toxicity included dyspepsia and elevated liver function tests in all patients, gastric ulcer in 2, cholecystitis in 2, and sclerosing cholangitis in 3. Overall median survival for the colon cancer patients has not been reached at 16 months. Regional disease was controlled in the majority of patients treated with this regimen with acceptable toxicity and good quality of life.
