Abstract
PURPOSE: We assessed the impact of hepatic dysfunction on the safety and pharmacology of gemcitabine/capecitabine in patients with advanced pancreatico-biliary cancer. METHODS: We included 12 patients receiving 3 weekly gemcitabine 1,000 mg/m(2) day 1, 8 and oral capecitabine 650 mg/m(2) b.i.d. over 2 weeks until disease progression or intolerable toxicity. Patients were included into one normal hepatic function cohort [total bilirubin (TB) 80 mumol/L). Three patients with a creatinine clearance
