[Chemotherapy with low-dose docetaxel and estramustine phosphate in patient with liver dysfunction due to liver metastases of hormone-refractory prostate cancer : a case report].
A 82-year-old man was referred to our hospital for treatment of hormone-refractory prostate cancer with liver metastases. The obstruction of intrahepatic bile ducts due to the rapid growth of liver metastases induced liver dysfunction. We administered 25 mg/m(2) docetaxel on day1 and 280 mg/body estramustine phosphate on day 1 to day 3, every 4 weeks. After two courses of this combined chemothrapy, the liver metastases were markedly reduced in size with the rapid improvement of liver function.
