Effect of TCM Combined with Chemotherapy on Immune Function and Quality of Life of Patients with Non-small Cell Lung Cancer inStage Ⅲ-Ⅳ

Objective: To observe and compare the effect of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) combined with chemotherapy (CT) on immune function and quality of life (QOL)of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ. Methods: One hundred cases with stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ NSCLC were randomly divided into two groups. The treated group (n=50) received CT combined with TCM, and the control group received CT alone. The percentage of T lymphocyte subset in peripheral blood and the change of natural killer (NK) cell count were observed after treatment. The QOL and tolerance of CT were also compared between the two groups after treatment. Results: In the treated group, CD3 cell count, CD4 cell count, CD4/ CDg ratio and NK cell activity were higher than those in control group, while CD8 cell count in the treated group was lower than that in the control group (P<0.05), and QOL and tolerance of CT in the treated group were also better (P<0.05). Conclusion: TCM combined with CT could raise the patients' ability in tolerating CT in stage Ⅲ-ⅣNSCLC.

Role of radiation therapy in the management of stage Ⅲ non-small cell lung cancers: current status and controversies

The treatment of stage Ⅲ non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) consisting of the heterogeneous stage subsets remains a challenge. Overall, it has been gradually recognized that radiation therapy(RT) plays a crucial role in the management of stage Ⅲ NSCLC. One superior sulcus tumors are the subset for which the trimodality treatments are clearly preferred. One subset of stage Ⅲ NSCLC has a minimal disease burden with microscopic p N2 disease or with discrete p N2 involvement identified preoperatively, thus technically could undergo a surgical resection. For the incidentally found p N2 disease after complete surgery(ⅢA-1, ⅢA-2), the value of postoperative radiotherapy(PORT) has been recognized by a reassessment based on new data. However, doubt persists regarding how to define the clinical target volume for PORT. For the discrete p N2 involvement identified preoperatively(a selected part of ⅢA-3), induction chemoradiation therapy(CRT) before surgery may yield a survival advantage, although the phase Ⅲ randomized trials in this issue are not conclusive. The other major subset of stage Ⅲ NSCLC is the infiltrative stage Ⅲ NSCLC with N2 or N3 nodal disease(ⅢA-3, ⅢA-4, and ⅢB), for which concurrent CRT is considered as the current standard of care. The potential role of radiation dose escalation/acceleration has been proposed; however, the optimal dose fractionation remains an important unresolved question. Additionally, the role of prophylactic cranial irradiation for stage Ⅲ patients with high risk of brain metastasis is worth of further assessment. Moreover, how to integrate molecular targeted therapy with RT, as well as whether they had a role in stage Ⅲ diseases, are other controversies actively under study in ongoing trials. This review specifically describes the updated role of RT in multimodal approach to treat stage Ⅲ NSCLC and the controversies regarding these results in various situations.

Stage Ⅲ should be subclassified into Stage ⅢA and ⅢB in the American Joint Committee on Cancer(8^(th) Edition) staging system for pancreatic cancer

AIM To ascertain the prognostic role of the T4 and N2 category in stage Ⅲ pancreatic cancer according to the 8 th edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer(AJCC) classification.METHODS Patients were collected from the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results(SEER) database(2004-2013) and were divided into three groups: T(1-3)N2, T4 N(0-1), and T4 N2. Overall survival(OS) and disease-specific survival(DSS) of patients were evaluated by the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS For the first time, we found a significant difference in OS and DSS between T(1-3)N2/T4 N(0-1) and T4 N2 butnot between T(1-3)N2 and T4 N(0-1). A higher grading correlated with a worse prognosis in the T(1-3)N2 and T4 N2 groups.CONCLUSION Patients with stage T4 N2 had a worse prognosis than those with stage T(1-3)N2/T4 N(0-1) in the 8 th edition AJCC staging system for pancreatic cancer. We recommend that stage Ⅲ should be subclassified into stage ⅢA [T(1-3)N2/T4 N(0-1)] and stage ⅢB(T4 N2).

Unresectable stage Ⅲ non-small-cell lung cancer: Have we made any progress?

Lung cancer is responsible for the most cancer deaths worldwide with an incidence that is still rising. One third of patients have unresectable stage ⅢA or stage ⅢB disease. The standard of care for locally advanceddisease in patients with good performance status consists of combined modality therapy in particular concurrent chemoradiotherapy. But despite a lot of efforts done in the past, local control and survival of patients with unresectable stage Ⅲ non-small-cell lung cancer(NSCLC) remains poor. Improving outcomes for patients with unresectable stage Ⅲ NSCLC has therefore been an area of ongoing research. Research has focused on improving systemic therapy, improving radiation therapy or adding a maintenance therapy to consolidate the initial therapy. Also implementation of newer targeted therapies and immunotherapy has been investigated as well as the option of prophylactic cranial irradiation. This article reviews the latest literature on improving local control and preventing distant metastases. It seems that we have reached a plateau with conventional chemotherapy. Radiotherapy dose escalation did not improve outcome although increasing radiation dose-intensity with new radiotherapy techniques and the use of newer agents, e.g., immunotherapy might be promising. In the future well-designed clinical trials are necessary to prove those promising results.

Prognostic and predictive significance of MSI in stages Ⅱ/Ⅲ colon cancer

In colon cancer,classic disease staging remains the key prognosis and treatment determinant.Although adjuvant chemotherapy has an established role in stageⅢcolon cancer patients,in stageⅡit is still a subject of controversy due to its restriction to a small subgroup of patients with high-risk histopathologic features.Patients with stageⅡtumors form a highly heterogeneous group,with five-year relative overall survival rates ranging from 87.5%(ⅡA)to 58.4%(ⅡC).Identifying those for whom adjuvant chemotherapy would be appropriate and necessary has been challenging,and prognostic markers which could serve in the selection of patients more likely to recur or benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy are eagerly needed.The stronger candidate in this category seems to be microsatellite instability(MSI).The recently reported European Society for Medical Oncology guidelines suggest that MSI should be evaluated in stageⅡcolorectal cancer patients in order to contribute in treatment decisionmaking regarding chemotherapy administration.Thehypothetical predictive role of MSI regarding its response to 5-fluorouracil-based adjuvant chemotherapy has proven a much more difficult issue to address.Almost every possible relation between MSI and chemotherapy outcome has been described in the adjuvant colon cancer setting in the international literature,and the matter is far from being settled.In this current report we critically evaluate the prognostic and predictive impact of MSI status in patients with stageⅡand stageⅢcolon cancer patients.

Macroscopic appearance of TypeⅣand giant Type Ⅲ is a high risk for a poor prognosis in pathological stage Ⅱ/Ⅲ advanced gastric cancer with postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy

AIM To evaluate whether a high risk macroscopic appearance(Type Ⅳ and giant Type Ⅲ) is associated with a dismal prognosis after curative surgery, because its prognostic relevance remains elusive in pathological stage Ⅱ/Ⅲ(p Stage Ⅱ/Ⅲ) gastric cancer.METHODS One hundred and seventy-two advanced gastric cancer(defined as pT2 or beyond) patients with p Stage Ⅱ/Ⅲ who underwent curative surgery plus adjuvant S1 chemotherapy were evaluated, and the prognostic relevance of a high-risk macroscopic appearance was examined. RESULTS Advanced gastric cancers with a high-risk macroscopic appearance were retrospectively identified by preoperative recorded images. A high-risk macroscopic appearance showed a significantly worse relapse free survival(RFS)(35.7%) and overall survival(OS)(34%) than an average risk appearance(P = 0.0003 and P < 0.0001, respectively). A high-risk macroscopic appearance was significantly associated with the 13^(th) Japanese Gastric Cancer Association(JGCA) pT(P = 0.01), but not with the 13^(th) JGCA pN. On univariate analysis for RFS and OS, prognostic factors included 13^(th) JGCA p Stage(P < 0.0001)and other clinicopathological factors including macroscopic appearance. A multivariate Cox proportional hazards model for univariate prognostic factors identified highrisk macroscopic appearance(P = 0.036, HR = 2.29 for RFS and P = 0.021, HR = 2.74 for OS) as an independent prognostic indicator. CONCLUSION A high-risk macroscopic appearance was associated with a poor prognosis, and it could be a prognostic factor independent of 13^(th) JGCA stage in p Stage Ⅱ/Ⅲ advanced gastric cancer.

133例Ⅲ期鼻咽癌调强放疗的疗效及不良反应分析

背景与目的:调强放疗(intensity-modulated radiation therapy,IMRT)是最大限度提高肿瘤靶区照射剂量的同时明显减少周围正常组织的剂量的放疗技术,调强放疗联合化疗治疗局部晚期鼻咽癌取得了较好的疗效,如何在此基础上进一步提高疗效成为肿瘤学者共同关注的话题。鼻咽癌分期不同,疗效不同,同一分期各亚组间疗效有无差别,尚有待研究。通过回顾性分析临床Ⅲ期鼻咽癌各亚组间调强放疗联合化疗的疗效,探讨进一步提高疗效的方法。方法:对我院2003年1月—2006年6月期间收治的133例临床Ⅲ期鼻咽癌患者进行分析,根据AJCC 2002分期,其中T3N07例(5.3%),T3N139例(29.3%),T2N248例(36.1%),T3N239例(29.3%)。所有患者均完成调强放疗,124例患者行诱导化疗,其中24例患者行同期化疗,33例患者行辅助化疗。结果:全组5年局部控制率、无远处转移生存率、无瘤生存率和总生存率分别为:90.9%、89.9%、82.5%和83.4%。T2、T3期患者5年局部控制率分别为93.1%、89.4%(χ2=0.407,P=0.524),无远处转移生存率分别为91.2%、89.3%(χ2=0.152,P=0.697),无瘤生存率分别为86.5%、80.0%(χ2=0.899,P=0.343),总生存率分别为81.1%、84.7%(χ2=0.311,P=0.577)。N0-1、N2期患者5年局部控制率分别为91.1%、90.9%(χ2=0.007,P=0.933),无远处转移生存率分别为97.8%、85.8%(χ2=4.69,P=0.030),无瘤生存率分别为88.9%、79.2%(χ2=1.746,P=0.183 6),总生存率分别为93.5%、78.1%(χ2=5.052,P=0.025)。辅助化疗对IMRTⅢ期鼻咽癌未能获益,但3、4级毒性不良反应明显增加(48%vs 27.6%,P<0.005)。结论:对临床Ⅲ期鼻咽癌患者,IMRT联合化疗可以取得较好的疗效,N0-1期较N2期患者有较高的总生存率和无远处转移生存率,进一步提高IMRTⅢ期鼻咽癌疗效还需寻找更有效的化疗药物、靶向药物及更合理的联合治疗方案。

影响Ⅲ期结直肠癌预后的相关因素分析

目的总结Ⅲ期结直肠癌病例的临床病理特点、术后治疗特点及生存规律。方法回顾性分析了2005年1月至2008年12月在中国人民解放军总医院接受根治性手术治疗及术后辅助化疗的433例Ⅲ期结直肠癌患者的临床资料,总结了其临床病理特征、治疗特点及与生存预后的关系。结果 433例Ⅲ期结直肠癌患者的平均无疾病生存时间为(72.37±2.11)个月,中位无疾病生存时间未达到,1、3、5年无疾病生存率分别为86.8%、77.9%、57.0%。平均总生存时间为(79.91±2.02)个月,中位总生存时间未达到,1、3、5年总生存率分别为91.5%、75.1%、63.3%。COX多因素生存分析结果显示,术前肠梗阻、术后并发症、肿瘤部位、切缘阳性、神经浸润、脉管癌栓、肿瘤淋巴结转移(TNM)分期、淋巴结转移比率、辅助化疗方案、化疗持续时间等因素均为影响无疾病生存和总生存的独立预后因素。FOLFOX和XELOX方案与患者年龄、是否术后并发症、肿瘤部位及化疗持续时间具有明显相关性。结论术后并发症、肿瘤部位、TNM分期、切缘阳性等临床病理因素是Ⅲ期结直肠癌的独立预后因素。FOLFOX和XELOX方案可显著改善患者预后,化疗维持时间较长者治疗效果好。

术前支气管动脉灌注化疗治疗Ⅲa(N_2)期非小细胞肺癌

目的探讨术前支气管动脉灌注(BAI)化疗在Ⅲa(N2)期非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)治疗中的临床应用价值。方法临床确诊的Ⅲa(N2)期非小细胞肺癌186例,随机分为观察组和对照组,每组93例。观察组患者在接受2次BAI后手术,对照组确诊后直接手术,观察BAI疗效,比较两组患者的手术情况和术后生存率。结果观察组的临床和组织学有效率分别为80.6%和83.9%,TNM分期下降50.53%,不良反应轻微;观察组根治性手术切除率为93.4%,显著高于对照组的72.0%,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);术中出血量和术后并发症两组间无差别;观察组与对照组1、3、5年生存率分别为97.8%、64.8%、36.3%和89.3%、50.5%、18.3%,两组间差异有显著统计学意义(P<0.01)。结论术前BAI可获得较好的临床和组织学疗效,并能提高Ⅲa(N2)期NSCLC的根治性手术切除率和术后生存率,值得临床推广应用。

Ⅲ期肺癌手术治疗生存率的分析

全组共1055例Ⅲ期肺癌手术切除,5、10年生存率分别为22.1％和15.3％,T_3N_0M_0预后好,5、10年生存率分别为41％和29.9％,虽N_2组预后较差,但是5,10年生存率仍有15.7％和9.1％,优于其它疗法。我们认为对纵隔淋巴结转移数少,及手术技术允许的N_2可以切除,但对食道旁、肺下韧带及隆突下淋巴结转移的手术应从严。Ⅲ期小细胞肺癌的长期生存率虽低,但和以往相比有所提高,可能和近年开展多方法学治疗有关,生存3年无病,可望根除。腺癌术后3年生存率仍不断下降,10年生存率仅为5年之半数,提示重视于血道、淋巴道内微转移灶之存在的重要性。

目的回顾性分析Ⅲ期非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)三维适形放疗(3D-CRT)引起放射性肺炎(RP)发生的相关物理参数及临床影响因素。方法 2001年1月至2008年12月接受根治性3D-CRT的203例NSCLC临床资料,其中男163例、女40例;中位年龄63岁(30~83岁);21例有慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)病史;ⅢA期79例、ⅢB期124例。70例单纯放疗、133例放化联合治疗,中位等效照射剂量6 200 c Gy(5 000~7 800 c Gy);RP评价采用RTOG标准,剂量体积直方图(DVH)评价物理参数与≥2级和≥3级RP的关系。统计分析采用SPSS13.0统计软件。结果 203例放疗后发生≥2级RP者32%(65/203),≥3级RP者20.7%(42/203)。Spearman相关和Logistic单因素分析显示,物理参数中肺平均剂量、双肺V5~V40,临床因素中COPD病史、分割方式(常规分割/大分割)、放疗剂量、GTV和GTV/肺体积均与≥2级和≥3级RP相关(P<0.05);而性别、年龄、吸烟、病变部位(中央型/周围型、肺上叶/肺中下叶)、化疗与否等均与≥2级和≥3级RP无明显关系(P>0.05)。Logistic多因素回归分析显示,肺V25是≥2级和≥3级RP的独立危险因素,ROC曲线显示肺V25分界值为29%;COPD是≥2级RP的独立危险因素。结论 DVH参数可用于预测和评价放射性肺炎,肺V25可能是最有效预测≥2级RP和≥3级RP的指标,合并COPD增加≥2级RP的发生率。

Ⅲ期结肠癌患者预后因素分析和术前对预后评估的探索

目的探讨Ⅲ期结肠癌的预后因素及术前预后评估的可行性。方法回顾性分析2004年1月至2008年6月间北京肿瘤医院外科手术治疗的Ⅲ期结肠癌患者临床病理资料,分析结肠癌的预后因素。对可能影响患者生存的因素进行单因素和Cox多因素模型分析。结果 (1)全部Ⅲ期患者3年无病生存率为63.4%;(2)单因素分析发现术前血清CEA水平>5 ng/ml、肿瘤分化程度低、肿瘤直径≥5 cm、更高的N分期、TNM分期和脉管癌栓(P<0.05)是影响Ⅲ期患者预后的因素;(3)多因素回归分析术前血清CEA水平(P=0.000,RR=2.832,1.755～6.023),N分期(P=0.001,RR=1.456,1.522～4.984),肿瘤直径≥5 cm(P=0.015,RR=1.663,1.155～3.871)是Ⅲ期患者生存的独立预后危险因素。结论根据术前血清CEA水平、肿瘤直径≥5 cm和更高N分期,可以对具有预后不良因素的Ⅲ期结肠癌患者进行更准确的风险分层,应针对Ⅲ期高危患者进行更积极的术前新辅助治疗以及更加密切的术后随访。
