Best supportive care
Chemotherapy: S-1 is administered orally twice daily at a dose of 80,100, or 120mg/day for body surface areas of less than 1.25m2, between 1.25m2 and less than 1.5, or 1.5m2 or greater, respectively, for 14 consecutive days, followed by a 7-day rest, repeated every 3 weeks. DC-CIK Immunotherapy:Mononuclear cells were collected aseptically with blood cell separator composition aphaeresis, and then cultured DC-CIK cells were infused back to the patients on days 15, 17, and 19 of 21-day cycles.
