We evaluated the feasibility of maintenance treatment using UFT (a combination of tegafur and uracil) after adjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy in patients with resected lung cancer. A prospective feasibility trial was conducted. Between 2010 and 2014, UFT was administered for 2 years sequentially after platinum-based adjuvant chemotherapy in 24 patients with resected Stage IIA-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer. The safety of UFT and the rate of treatment completion were then evaluated. The prior platinum-based chemotherapy regimens consisted of cisplatin+vinorelbine in 16 patients, carboplatin+paclitaxel in 5 and carboplatin+S-1 in one. During the subsequent UFT administration, a total of 3 patients required a dose reduction because of Grade 1 blood-stained sputum, Grade 2 numbness, and Grade 2 constipation, in one patient each. Eleven patients underwent the planned 2-year UFT administration, but 12 patients could not because of the recurrence of lung cancer in 5 patients, metachronous malignancy in one, and toxicities in 6. The completion rate for UFT administration was 64.7% (11/17). The most common type of toxicity was gastrointestinal toxicities. All of the toxicities were grade 1 or 2, and no severe toxicities were observed. UFT treatment after platinum-based chemotherapy was revealed to be feasible.
