A 58-year-old woman underwent right hemicolectomy with lymph node dissection(D2)for advanced ascending colon cancer which pathological examinations revealed to be moderately-differentiated adenocarcinoma. CEA and CA19-9 levels increased 6 months after the operation. She started adjuvant chemotherapy with oral administration of UFT-E(400 mg/day), but CEA and CA19-9 levels continued to elevate. However, a recurrent tumor was not detected by computed tomography(CT)and endoscopic examinations. A local recurrence in the right lateral abdominal wall was confirmed by PET-CT examination. We then conducted modified-FOLFOX6/FOLFIRI alternating regimen(modified- FIREFOX regimen). After this therapy, repeated PET-CT showed that the abnormal FDG-uptake concentration had disappeared, leading to a complete response(CR). The adverse event was grade 3 in leucopenia and grade 2 in gastrointestinal toxicity. She had maintained CR for the 12 months since undergoing chemotherapy. CEA and CA19-9 levels reduced to the normal range. We report this case with some review of the literature.
