Purpose We designed a phase I/II trial of intraperitoneal (IP) docetaxel plus S-1 to determine the maximum toler-ated dose (MTD) and recommended dose (RD) and to evaluate its efficacy and safety in gastric cancer patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC). Methods Patients with PC confirmed by laparoscopy or laparotomy received IP docetaxel on days 1 and 15 and S-1 (80 mg/m2) on days 1–14 every 4 weeks. Results In the phase I part (n = 12), each cohort received escalating doses of docetaxel (35–50 mg/m2); the MTD was determined to be 50 mg/m2 and the RD was deter-mined to be 45 mg/m2. Dose-limiting toxicities included grade 3 febrile neutropenia and grade 3 diarrhea. In the phase II part (n = 27), the median number of courses was 4 (range...
