This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. This is a Phase I study of oral fluoropyrimidine capecitabine (Xeloda) delivered on an intermittent scedule and combined with intravenous cisplatin in patients with advanced cancer of the digestive system. The objectives are to establish dose-limiting toxicities, maximum tolerated dose, and the recommended Phase II dose. Significant interaction between the combined agents will be determined. Possible antitumor effectiveness will be determined as a secondary objective.
