5. previous serious adverse events or unexpected to fluoropirimidin treatment and /or patients with proved deficit in dehidropirimidin deshidrogenase (DPD)

6. patients classified as "weak or fragile"

1. dependency on one or more of the daily activities following the daily activity scale from Katz

4. Symptomatic ischemic cardiopathy

8. active infectious process ((leukocytes superior to 12 x 109/l or fever upper to 38º, it is required thorax X:ray, hemoculture and urine culture 5 days previous to the inclusion)

9. severe or bad controlled concomitant disease

11. patients with any other medical or surgical important problem that, in the investigator opinion, could not allow to follow the treatment

12. not able to fulfill the protocol and follow-up

13. being involve in any investigational trial with any drug within 4 weeks prior the study treatment
