Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical effects, the therapy reactions,the living qualities of three treatments in advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Methods From Jan 2001 to Jun 2002, 120 patients pathologically confirmed NPC who firstly underwent radiotherapy were divided into two groups: radiotherapy with concurrent chemotherapy group(RC, n = 60, 5 fractions per week, one time per day, 200 cGy per day to a total dose of 7 000 ~ 8 000 cGy. cisplatin and 5-Fu two cycles in the first and fourth week during radioation); radiotherapy with AiDi injection group(RAD, n = 60, radiotherapy was the same as that of RC. Continuously injecting AiDi for 10 days 50 ml per day was one cycle which was repeated 3 cycles every alternation of 7 days); another 60 patients who contemporaneity reciceved radiotherapy alone (radiotherapy was the same as that of RC) because of some reasons and were comparable in clilical materials were regarded as the third group (R) to compare with the above two groups. The life quality, 3-year survival rate, and acute or chronic radiation reactions in the three groups were observed. Results All patients were followed up for more than 3 years: the 3-year survival rate in RC (73.3%),which was homologous as that in RAD(65.0 %, P =0.347), was higher than that in R group(53.3%,P = 0.028), and the local recurrent was inverse(10.0%,26.7%,P = 0.033 6). The acute and chronic radiation reactions in RC was highest whereas that in RAD group is lowest(P
