INTERVENTION CHEMOTHERAPY IN COMPREHENSIVE TREATMENT OF ADVANCED NASOPHARYNGEAL CARCINOMA

Objective: To study the use of interventional chemotherapy in comprehensive treatment for advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Methods: Interventional chemotherapy with multi-drugs including cisplatin (DDP) 100 mg, 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) 1000 mg and bleomycin (BLM) 16 mg was used to treat 30 cases with advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma before radiotherapy. 50 cases that received radiotherapy alone were used as a control group. The methods, time and dose schedule of radiotherapy were similar in the two groups. Results: The primary lesions in 16 cases and the cervical lymph nodes in 12 cases were reduced hi size after interventional chemotherapy. Radiation doses of those in complete response in their primary lesion and cervical lymph nodes were lower than that of the control group (P<0.05). The complete response rate of study group was 83.3% and that of control group was 72.0% (P<0.05). Conclusion: Interventional chemotherapy plus radiotherapy is a valuable treatment method in advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Preoperative Arterial Interventional Chemotherapy on Cervical Cancer

Objective： To discuss the therapeutic effect of preoperative interventional chemotherapy on cervical cancer. Methods： Preoperative interventional chemotherapy by femoral intubation was performed in 25 patients with bulky cervical cancer. The patients received bleomycin 45 mg and cisplatin or oxaliplatin 80 mg/m^2. Results： 25 cases （including 8 cases with stage I and 17 cases with stage II） received one or two courses of preoperative interventional chemotherapy. The size of the focal lesions was decreased greatly and radical hysterectomy and lymphadenectomy were performed successfully in all the patients. All of the specimens were sent for pathological examination. Lymphocyte infiltration was found more obvious in the cancer tissues as compared with their counterpart before treatment. As a result, relevant vaginal bleeding was stopped completely shortly after the treatment. Conclusion： Arterial interventional chemotherapy was proved to reduce the local size of cervical cancer and thus control the hemorrhage efficiently. The patients with cervical cancer can receive radical hysterectomy therapy after the interventional chemotherapy.

The clinical use of interventional chemotherapy and intravesical instillation for preventing recurrence of superficial bladder cancer

Objective To study the therapeutic efficacy of combined interventional chemotherapy and intravesical instillation of mitomycin on preventing bladder cancers from recurring after local ablation. Methods 28 patients with superficial bladder cancers were randomized into combined interventional chemotherapy and intravesical instillation of mitomycin or intravesical instillation of mitomycin alone for preventing recurrence after local ablation. The result was assessed by x2 test. Results The patients have been followed up for 12-26 months (mean 21 months). 1 case has had tumor recurrence in the combined modality therapy group and 4 in the intravesical instillation alone group, the tumor recurrence rate being 7% (1/14) and 29% (4/14) respectively (P【0.05). Conclusion Combined use of interventional chemotherapy and intravesical instillation of mitomycin is effective in preventing superficial bladder cancer from recurring after local ablation with fewer adverse effects. The ragimen is not only reliable but

The Efficacy of Different Interventiona|Che moembolization Regiments Combined with Radiofrequency Ablation in the Treatment of Primary Liver Cancer and its Effects on Patients’Immune Function

Objective:To study and compare the clinical effects of the combination of different interventional embolization chemotherapy and radiofrequency ablation in patients with primary liver cancer.Methods:In this paper,based on the target data validation of those 60 patients with primary liver cancer treated in the hospital during the period from May 2017 to May 2018,the double-blind method was used for the comparison between groups.Patients in the reference group were treated with the combination of cisplatinum interventional chemoembolization regimen and radiofrequency ablation,while those in the experimental group were treated with the combination of lobaplatin interventional chemoembolization regimen and radiofrequency ablation.Then,the efficacy of both groups was compared.Results:After the treatment,the clinically effective total value,the calculation value of adverse reactions,and the value of IgA,IgM,IgG and AFP of the experimental group were compared with those of the reference group.In addition,the value of IgA,IgM,IgG and AFP of both groups after and before the treatment were compared.The experimental results showed that the data was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion:The combination of lobaplatin and cisplatin interventional embolization chemotherapy and radiofrequency ablation has some effects in patients with primary liver cancer,but the former one showed more significant effects.

DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT OF MALIGNANT PANCREATICENDOCRINE TUMOUR

Objective To summarize our experience in the diagnosis and treatment of malignant pancreatic endocrine tumour. Methods We retrospectively reviewed 36 cases of malignant pancreatic endocrine tumours in our hospital from July 1987 to April 2002, and summarized its clinical features. Results Liver metastasis was the main malignant manifestation of malignant pancreatic endocrine tumours (incidence rate 72.2%). Removals of primary lesion and isolated hepatic metastatic lesion were means of curative therapy. Interventional chemotherapy was an important adjuvant treatment. Conclusion Comprehensive therapy plays an important role in improving the prognosis of malignant pancreatic endoc-rine tumour.

Clinical Study on Treatment of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer by Chinese Herbal Medicine Combined with Bronchial Arterial Chemotherapy

To study the therapeutic effect of Chinese herbal medicine (CHM) combined with bronchial arterial chemotherapy (BAC) in treating lung cancer.Methods: Ninety patients with mid-advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) were randomly divided into two groups. The 45 cases in Group A were treated with CHM combined with BAC and the 45 cases in Group B treated with BAC alone. The short-term and long-term effect, follow-up survival rate, quality of life, changes of clinical symptoms and peripheral blood figures in the patients were observed.Results: After treatment, the rate of CR+PR+NC in the two groups was 88.89% and 68.89% respectively, the inter-group comparison showed a significant difference (P<0.05). The 0.5-, 1- and 2-year survival rate in Group A was 75.56%, 55.56% and 48.89% respectively and in Group B 71.11%, 46.67% and 24.44% respectively. The 2-year survival rate in the former was better than that in the latter (P<0.05). Moreover, the improvement of clinical symptoms, Karnofsky scoring, body weight and peripheral blood figure in Group A was superior to those in Group B.Conclusion: Therapeutic effect of BAC could be enhanced by combining it with CHM.

Clinical Observation on Effect of Yiqi Huoxue Recipe (益气活血方) in Comprehensive Treatment on Advanced Stage of Esophageal Cancer

Objective: To observe the effect of Yiqi Huoxue (replenishing Qi and activating blood circulation, YQHX) recipe in patients with advanced stage of esophageal cancer treated with radiotherapy and intervention chemotherapy. Methods:In comparing 31 patients who were treated with radiochemotherapy (RCT, Group A), and 31 patients treated with RCT plus YQHX recipe(Group B). Results:Immediate effective rates were 48.4% in Group A and 64.5% in Group B (P>0.05). The function of bone marrow in Group B was obviously better than that in Group A. The 1 year metastasis rate in Group A was higher than that in Group B, but the longterm survival rate of Group B was obviously higher than that in Group A (P<0.05). Conclusion: YQHX recipe could reduce the bone marrow suppression caused by RCT, lower the metastasis rate, prolong the longterm survival and improve the quality of life.
