Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of neoadjuvant chemo radiotherapy combined with surgical treatment for advanced rectal cancer.Methods Fifty-one patients with advanced rectal cancer were randomly divided into treatment group and control group by random number table.In treatment group,26 cases received three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy synchronization XELOX chemotherapy for 2 cycles,then they received radical resection after 4-6 weeks.Twenty-five cases in control group received neoadjuvant chemotherapy with XELOX for 2 cycles,then received radical resection.Results The objective response rate in treatment group was 84.6％ (22/26),and in control group was 60.0％(15/25),there was significant difference between two groups (P =0.049).Radical resection in treatment group was 96.2％ (25/26),significantly higher than that in control group 76.0％ (19/25)(P =0.037).The sphincter preservation rate in treatment group was 61.5％ (16/26),and in control group was 20.0％ (5/25),there was significant difference between two groups (P =0.003).The pathologic complete response rate in treatment group was 26.9％ (7/26),significantly higher than that in control group 4.0％ (1/25)(P =0.024).The 1,2 and 3 year survival rate in treatment group were 88.0％(22/25),60.0％(15/25),32.0％(8/25),which were significantly higher than those in control group 62.5％ (15/24),29.2％ (7/24),8.3％ (2/24) (P =0.038,0.030,0.040).The 1,2,and 3 year recurrence rate in treatment group were 8.0％(2/25),20.0％(5/25),36.0％ (9/25),which were significantly lower than those in control group 33.3％ (8/24),44.8％(12/24),66.7％ (16/24) (P=0.028,0.027,0.032).Conclusion Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy can improve the rate of surgical resection,sphincter preservation and prolong survival of rectal cancer,it can be used as a kind of effective treatment for rectal cancer.
