Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To observe clinical effect and safety of temozolomide (TMZ) combined with radiotherapy in the treatment of malignant glioma. METHODS:58 patients with malignant glioma were randomly divided into TMZ-RT group(32 cas-es)and RT group(26 cases). RT group were given the therapy of 3D-CRT 1.8-3 Gy/d,and some patients received the hyperfrac-tion radiotherapy with total dose of 60-75 Gy. TMZ-RT group were given TMZ chemotherapy 75 mg/(m2·d)combined with radio-therapy for 6 weeks and TMZ sequential therapy 150-200 mg/(m2·d)for 4 weeks. Therapeutic efficacy and ADR were observed in 2 groups. RESULTS:After treatment,in TMZ-RT group,9 cases had complete remission,11 cases had partial remission,10 cas-es were stable and 2 cases were progressive;in RT group,6 cases had complete remission,8 cases had partial remission,8 cases were stable and 4 cases were progressive. There was no statistical significance in short-term efficacy between 2 groups(P>0.05). The 1,2,3-year survival rates of TMZ-RT group were 81.3%(26/32),78.1%(25/32) and 62.5%(20/32),while those of RT group were 84.6%(22/26),34.6%(9/26)and 15.4%(4/26). There were statistical significance in 2,3-year survival rates between 2 groups (P<0.05). Median recurrent time of TMZ-RT group was (23.2 ± 8.6) months,while that of RT group was (15.6 ± 8.7) months,with statistical significance(P<0.05). According to the KPS,TMZ-RT group was(89.6±9.6)and RT group(65.1±10.1), with statistical significance (P<0.01). The side effect of 2 groups were slight. CONCLUSIONS:Radiotherapy combined with TMZ can significantly improve the survival rates of 2 and 3-year and delay the tumor recurrent time,and lighter adverse reaction. It can be used as new therapy method for malignant glioma. But it needs further study for treating the malignant glioma patients with osteomyelitis or low immune function.
