As a result of recent major advances in chemotherapy for metastatic colorectal cancer, the prognosis for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer has improved. However, elderly patients often cannot receive intensive therapy. There are still many problems to solve regarding treatment for elderly patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. We herein report a case of complete response of pulmonary metastases from rectal cancer to tegafur-uracil (UFT)/leucovorin (LV) + bevacizumab (Bmab) in an elderly patient. An 80-year-old woman who had undergone curative surgery for rectal cancer 5 years ago was diagnosed with pulmonary metastases. Taking into account her advanced age and low renal function (creatinine clearance: 41.2 mL/min), UFT/LV + Bmab therapy was selected. The patient received UFT (300 mg/m2/day) and LV (75 mg/day) on days 1–5, 8–12, and 15–19 and Bmab (7.5 mg/kg) on day 1. The treatment cycle was repeated every 21 days. Following 17 courses of treatment without adverse events, a complete response was observed. Furthermore, there was no recurrence within 6 months after the final course of therapy. This case indicates that UFT/LV + Bmab is suitable for the treatment of elderly patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.
