METHODS Sixty patients with locally advanced or postoperatively relapsed rectal cancer were randomly divided into two groups after 40 Gy external radiation, namely a late-course 3D-CRT group and a conventional radiotherapy group that served as the control. There were 30 patients in each group. For patients in the 3D-CRT group, multi-biomarkers were measured before and after radiotherapy and after relapse. RESULTS Response rates in the 3D-CRT and the control groups were 86.7% (26/30) and 70% (21/30) respectively, without a significant difference (P〉0.05). The 1-, 2- and 3-year survival rates were 80%, 53.3% and 36.7% in the 3D-CRT group; in the control group the rates were 56.7%, 40% and 13.3% respectively, with a significant difference (P=0.0213). CEA, CA19-9, CA242 and FER decreased after radiotherapy in the 3D-CRT group, P〈0.01, indicating a significant difference. The values after relapse were higher than those without relapse, P〈0.01, indicating a significant difference. CONCLUSION Conventional radiotherapy with a 3D-CRT boost gives better therapeutic effect to patients with locally advanced or postoperatively locally relapsed rectal cancer. A multi-biomarker protein chip diagnosis system can be utilized as an effective tool to determine the therapeutic effect and prognosis.展开更多

The nature of magnetic microspheres and quantitative elemental composition radiopreparats was considered. We have developed a new method of producing radionuclide-labeled microspheres (radiopharmaceutical ^140Nd-microspheres) for radionuclide therapy.展开更多
