Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of Jianpi Huoxue Jiedu (JPHXJD) prescription on prevention of the postoperative metastasis of gastric cancer and to observe the changes of immunity and whole blood viscosity after treatment. METHODS: JPHXJD prescription and chemotherapy were administered to the treated group for 12 successive months, while only chemotherapy was given to the control group. RESULTS: The effective rate of anti-metastasis in the treated group was obviously better than that in the control group. In the aspects of enhancing Karnofsky scores, reducing whole blood viscosity and improving immunity after treatment, the treated group was better than the control group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: JPHXJD prescription combined with chemotherapy shows apparent effect on anti-metastasis. It can improve the quality of life of the patients, lower the whole blood viscosity and improve the immunity function.
