Two cases of hepatic metastasis of colorectal cancer were treated effectively by intrahepatic-arterial infusion immunotherapy using OK-432 (2 KE/week or 2 weeks), recombinant IL-2 (35 x 10(4) JRU or 40 x 10(4) JRU/week or 2 weeks), MMC (4 mg/week or 2 weeks) and 5-FU (250 mg/day during admission, 250 mg/week or 2 weeks during outpatient treatment). The levels of CEA were decreased from 17.2 ng/ml to 2.4 ng/ml after 8 weeks in the first case (50 y. o. male) and from 521 ng/ml to 66 ng/ml after 8 weeks in the second case (36 y. o. female), respectively. Abdominal CT revealed a partial response for 11 months in the first case and 6.5 months in the second case.
