Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignancies and chemotherapy is the main method for the treatment of advanced gastric cancer. Chemotherapy can improve the quality of life and prolong the survival time of patients with advanced or metastatic gastric cancer. The DCF regimen (docetaxel,cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil)is effective for patients with advanced gastric cancer. However,because of the severe hematological toxicity and gastrointestinal reaction caused by DCF regimen,its clinical application is still limited.
