ObjectiveTo investigate the predictive value of thyroid transcription factor-1 (TTF-1) in the treatment of advanced lung adenocarcinoma with different chemotherapy regimens.MethodsA total of 126 patients with advanced lung cancer were divided into three groups according to the chemotherapy regimen, namely a pemetrexed+nedaplatin group (PEM+NDP group), a pemetrexed+cisplatin/carboplatin group (PEM+DDP/CBP group) and a third-generation (3G) chemotherapy+cisplatin/carboplatin group (3G agent+DDP/CBP group). The predictive value of TTF-1 in the above three treatment regimens was analyzed. The patients were followed up by telephone or outpatient visit until April 2017.ResultsThere were no significant differences in disease control rate or objective response rate between the three different chemotherapy regimens (all P>0.05). The survival rate of PEM+NDP group was significantly higher than that of PEM+DDP/CBP group and 3G agent+DDP/CBP group (9.68%vs. 5.56% and 6.80%, both P<0.05). ECOG score and brain metastasis were independent risk factors for the prognosis of chemotherapy regimens. TTF-1 was an independent risk factor for PEM+NDP therapy.ConclusionTTF-1 is an independent risk factor for PEM+NDP chemotherapy, but not for 3G agent + DDP/CBP or PEM+DDP/CBP regimens.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of artieral infusion chemotherapy combined with 125I seed implantation in treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). MethodsBetween February 2012 to June 2014, 34 patients with unresectable NSCLC received 125I seed implantation, in which 16 patients also received artieral infusion chemotherapy. All the patients were followed up and two months after 125I seed implantation the thoracic CT scanning was carried out in all patients. The response to treatment was evaluated in accordance with Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors and the accumulated survival rate was analyzed by means of Kaplan-Meier. ResultsThe operation successful rate was 100% and no severe complications were observed. Two months later the thoracic CT scanning showed that patients who only received 125I seed implantation with a total effective rate of 72.2% and those received artieral infusion chemotherapy combined with 125I seed implantation with an effective rate of 87.5%, with no significant difference between two groups in the effective rate (χ2=1.122, P>0.05). Median survival time of two groups was 361 days and 470 days (χ2=2.985, P < 0.05), respectively. Survival rate of 1 year was 43.5% and 83.5%(χ2=4.101, P < 0.05), respectively. ConclusionArtieral infusion chemotherapy combined with 125I seed implantation is safe, reliable and effective in treatment of unresectable NSCLC, which can prolong the patient's survival time.
Objective To comprehend the concept， pathology， molecular mechanisms， diagnosis， and treatmentof aggressive fibromatosis （AF）， and to find a novel way to cure aggressive fibromatosis. Method The literatures about the definition， molecular mechanisms， and clinical research of AF were reviewed and analized. Results AF is rare and benign fibromatous lesion that is the result of abnormal proliferation of myofibroblasts. The pathologic features of AF isa benign disease， but it has “malignant” biological behavior. The tumor often involved the surrounding organs and bloodvessels， and caused death of patients. For patients with clinical symptoms or complications， complete excision of thetumor is the treatment of choice. Even if the operation to ensure the negative margin also has a higher recurrence rate， soits treatment requires multidisciplinary treatment. Conclusions The mechanism of AF is very complex， and it’s mecha-nism is still unclear. Clinical management of patients with AF is difficult and controversial， at present， the most effective treatment for AF is operation resection. The effects of adjuvant radiotherapy， chemotherapy， and other treatment after operation for AF still need further study.
Objective To investigate the trend of breast cancer treatment and prognosis in 30 years. Methods Total 1 092 patients with breast cancer treated in the Peking Union Medical College Hospital between 1975 and 2006 were reviewed in six time phases for therapy, metastasis, and survival rate. Six time phases were 1975-1980 years, 1985-1986 years, 1990-1991 years, 1995-1996 years, 2000-2001 years and 2005-2006 years. Results Radical operation was the major treatment (68.9%， 91/132) of breast cancer in 1975-1980 and then became less popular until it was totally abandoned after 2001. The number of modified radical operation begun to rise from 1980 and reached its peak in 1995-1996 (94.9%， 146/154). The number of lumpectomy had been increasing since 2000, and that of chemotherapy had been rising since 1985-1986. But there was no apparent change of the percentage of radiotherapy treatment. In 1975-1980, only 0.8% （1/126） patients received endocrine therapy, but in 1990-1991, the ratio was 66.0% （33/50）. The metastasis and recurrence ratio was declining gradually in the 6 time phases (P＜0.05). The 5-year and 10-year disease free survival rates in the groups of 1990-1991, 1995-1996, 2000-2001, and 2005-2006 were apparently higher than those in two earlier groups of 1975-1980 and 1985-1986 (P＜0.05). Conclusion The conclusions of laboratory experiments and clinical trials on breast cancer are critical for improving prognosis.
ObjectiveTo investigate effect of carbon nanoparticles on number of lymph nodes harvested in radical operation of rectal cancer after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy. MethodsOne hundred and five patients diagnosed with low and middle rectal cancer and received radical operation after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy in Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from March 1, 2014 to October 31, 2015 were included. Thirtysix patients were injected with carbon nanoparticles by colonoscopy before surgery and were classified as study group, and the rest patients were classified as control group. According to the same principle of surgery and procedure of pathological specimen handling, the effect of carbon nanoparticles on lymph node harvested in resected specimens was analyzed. ResultsThe total lymph nodes harvested were 764 in the study group and 1 242 in the control group. Among them, the metastatic lymph nodes were 19 in the study group, 58 in the control group. Although the average lymph nodes harvested in each patient had no significant difference between the study group and the control group (21.22±7.13 versus 18.00±9.84, t=1.739, P=0.085), the proportion of patients with 12 or more than 12 lymph nodes harvested in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group [88.9% (32/36) versus 71.0% (49/69), χ2=4.287, P=0.038]. The ratio of patients with metastatic lymph nodes [27.8% (10/36) versus 33.3% (23/69), χ2=0.339, P=0.561] and the average metastatic lymph nodes harvested in each patient (1.90±1.29 versus 2.52±2.33, t=0.788, P=0.437) all had no significant differences between the study group and the control group. ConclusionThe injection of carbon nanoparticles by colonoscopy before surgery could increase detection rate of 12 or more than 12 lymph nodes in resected specimens of patients who were diagnosed with low and middle rectal cancer and received radical operation after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy.
Objective To study the long-term effect of neoadjuvant chemotherapy on advanced breast cancer. Methods The CAF neoadjuvant chemotherapy 〔CTX 500 mg/m2（1st day, 8th day), 5-FU 500 mg/m2（1st day, 8th day), and ADM 30 mg/m2 (1st day) every 3 weeks〕 was carried out in 31 breast cancer patients (stageⅢ,Ⅳ) for 2 cycles before operation, compared with 30 patients (stage Ⅲa) whose therapies were never done and operations could be feasible. Results The overall response rate was 87.1%(27/31). The stages of 19 patients among 31 (61.3%) declined (6 patients to stage Ⅲa, 8 to stageⅡb, 4 to stageⅡa, 1 to stage 0, 1 to complete response and none to pathological complete response). The diseasefree survival time of the patients was 56.3 months which was obviously longer than that of the patients without neoadjuvant chemotherapy (43.5 months, P＜0.05). The 5-year diseasefree survival rate of the patients with neoadjuvant chemotherapy was 38.7% which was a little higher than that (33.3%) of the patients without the chemotherapy, and the two groups had no significant difference. Conclusion The neoadjuvant chemotherapy can reduce the stages of patients with advanced breast cancer, obviously prolong the diseasefree survival time of patients, and reduce or delay recurrence or metastasis.
Objective To study the risk factors for contralateral breast cancer (CBC) in women after regular treatment of the primary breast cancer. Methods Between January 1997 to December 2002, the clinical data of 340 breast cancer patients at our institution were retrospectively analyzed. In all the patients a detailed analysis was carried out with respect to age, operation type, radiation therapy technique and dose, the use of chemotherapy or hormone therapy, and other clinicopathologic characteristics. The KaplanMeier method was used to estimate the actuarial rate of CBC. The Cox proportional hazard regression model was used to estimate the relative risk factors of CBC. Results Fourteen cases were diagnosed to be CBC, thus overall incidence of CBC was 4.1%. Ten-year CBC incidence (2.7%) was higher than 5-year incidence of CBC (1.4%). Univariate analysis showed that the risk factors of CBC at 5-year and 10-year included: ≤45 years old, medullary carcinoma, family history of breast cancer and being taken without endocrine therapy (P＜0.05), while chemotherapy and radiotherapy were not risk factors of CBC (P＞0.05). Mutivariate analysis showed that ≤ 45 years old and being internal breast radiotherapy were independent risk factors of CBC at 5-year and 10-year (P＜0.05). Conclusions CBC may occur in these primary breast cancer patients with age ≤45 years old, medullary carcinoma, family history of breast cancer. In order to reduce the incidence of CBC, endocrine therapy rather than internal breast radiotherapy should be performed in early breast cancer patients.
【Abstract】Objective Through using neoadjuvant chemotherapy of different circles combined colorectal cancer operations under multi-disciplinary team (MDT), we evaluate effective treatment strategies that suit to colorectal cancer patients in this country. Methods The retrospective study reviewed patients with colorectal cancer treated in general surgery department Ⅲ in West China Hospital of Sichuan University from October 2006 to April 2007. According to the circle times of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, the patients were divided into single-circle group, double-circle group and triple-circle group. And comparing the difference of treatment time, effect index of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and operative results used these stratagies. Results The difference between the time from the end of neoadjuvant chemotherapy to the operation in three groups had no statistical significance （Pgt;0.05）, which were （5.64±2.00） d in single-circle group, (5.80±3.74） d in double-circle group, （6.22±2.76） d in triple-circle group. According to the treatment effects, CEA value decreased during pre- and post-neoadjuvant chemotherapy in each groups （Plt;0.01）. Subjective reception such as hemafecia, anal tenemus and defecation obstruction in double-circle group and triple-circle group were obviously improved than that in single-circle group （Plt;0.01）. Evaluating the tumor condition, the ratio of CR and PR in double-circle group and triple-circle group was higher than that in single-circle group （Plt;0.01）. According to the adverse effect, WBC value of double-circle group and triple-circle group decreased during pre- and post-neoadjuvant chemotherapy, their difference had statistical significance （Plt;0.01）. The difference of WBC pre- and post- neoadjuvant chemotherapy in single-circle group decreased fewer than that in double-circle group and triple-circle group （Plt;0.01）. Nausea and vomit response in triple-circle group were obviously more serious than that in single-circle group and double-circle group （Plt;0.01）. But abdominal distention and diarrhea response had no difference among three groups （Pgt;0.05）. Through our survey, used different neoadjuvant chemotherapy circle, patients in single-circle group and double-circle group were completely accepted within full confidence; but receptance of strategy in triple-circle group was 66.7％(12/18）. All operations were successful. The difference of postoperative aerofluxus time between single-circle group and double-circle group had statistical significance （Plt;0.05）. The difference of postoperative intake time, between triple-circle group and single-circle group, between triple-circle group and double-circle group, had statistical significance （Plt;0.05）. But wound recover time among three groups had no obvious difference （Pgt;0.05）. Conclusion Analyzing neoadjuvant chemotherapy circles, time between neoadjuvant chemotherapy and operation, treatment effect and operation results, it is a feasible and secure colorectal cancer multi-discipinary strategy for patients in West China that choose the treatment of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with double-circle and short preparation time.
