A 63-year-old female diagnosed as inoperable gastric cancer was treated with combination immunochemotherapy of Mitomycin C, Aclacinomycin A, SF-SP and Lentinan. In this case, the tumor directly invaded the pancreas and the peritoneal dissemination, metastasis to the para-aortic lymph nodes and Virchow's metastasis were identified. As the result of this therapy, the primary tumor was remarkably reduced in size. The subjective symptoms and the metastasis of the para-aortic lymph nodes and Virchow's metastasis disappeared. The side effect was only mild thrombocytopenia.
