Abstract:
Objective To compare the clinical value of XELOX and FOLFOX6 in the treatment of elderly patients with colorectal cancer. Methods Clinical data of 68 elderly patients(aged>60 years)with colorectal cancer were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into XELOX group(n =32)and FOLFOX6 group(n =36) according to the chemotherapy regimen.The response evaluation criteria in solid tumors,progression free survival, 2 -year mortality,chemotherapy related adverse reactions and health related quality of life in the two groups were compared.Results Compared with the FOLFOX6 group,the neurotoxicity incidence in the XELOX group was signifi-cantly lower (3.13% vs.22.22%,χ2 =5.380,P =0.020).The neutrophils reduced incidence was significantly lower(9.38% vs.30.56%,χ2 =4.649,P =0.039).The hand foot syndrome complications significantly increased (34.38% vs.8.33%,χ2 =7.027,P =0.008).There was no significant difference in the incidence of nausea,vomi-ting,diarrhea,oral mucosal ulcer,thrombocytopenia and elevation of transaminase in the two groups(χ2 =0.001, 0.000,0.008,2.102,1.071,1.851,all P >0.05).The quality of health related quality of life was significantly higher in the XELOX group than in the FOLFOX6 group at 6 months after the operation[(67.94 ±12.49)points vs. (57.39 ±13.59)points,t =3.198,P =0.015].There were no significant differences in the curative effect grade at 6 months after the operation,2 -year mortality rate and progression free survival time between the two groups(χ2 =0.949,0.008,t =0.573,all P >0.05).Conclusion Although XELOX increases the incidence of hand foot syn-drome in elderly patients with colorectal cancer,but it significantly reduces the incidence of neurotoxicity and neutro-phil,and improves the quality of life of patients after surgery.
