Methods: Thirty-four patients were confirmed diagnosis with cancer by pathologic results. All patients were given 6MV X-ray for radiotherapy, Dt 66-70 Gy/33-35 f/6-7 w, concurrently administrated nedaplatin (30 mg/m2) once a week (6 times). Results: A total 34 patients were enrolled, of whom 33 patients were available for objective response, 1 patient of esophageal cancer quit for allergic reaction. The response rate (RR) of nedaplatin-contained therapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma and esophageal carcinoma were 90.0% and 76.9%, respectively. The major toxic reaction was bone marrow suppression observed in 25 patients (73.5%), in which grade III aleukocytosis was observed in 3 patients (8.8%), grade III + IV thrombocytopenia in 3 patients (8.8%). And 6 patients (17.6%) showed gastrointestinal tract reaction. There were 4 patients with radiation esophagitis in the 13 patients with esophageal carcinoma. Conclusion: Nedaplatin can increase the therapeutic effect of radiation. Its incidence rate of bone marrow suppression is high, but the gastrointestinal tract reaction and renal toxicity is low and mild.展开更多
