Abstract:
Objective To observe the therapeutic efficacy and security of hyperthermia combined with chem-otherapy for advanced gastric carcinoma.Methods The clinical data of 126 patients with advanced gastric cancer were retrospectively analyzed.According to the different treatment methods,they were divided into simple chemotherapy group(A group,63 cases)and chemotherapy combined with hyperthermia group (B group,63 cases).A group received chemotherapy through vein,the patients received docetaxel 75mg/m2 on day 1,tegafur 80mg/m2 on day 1 -14 and cisplatin 75mg/m2 on day 2 -4 of 21 -day courses.B group received hyperthermia together with chemothera-py.Hyperthermia was maintained at 40 -42℃ for 90min.The efficacy and toxicity -side -effect after the patients received two courses were evaluated.Results In A group,the rate of complete remission(CR)was 0 case,partial remission(PR)in 28 cases,stable disease(SD)in 27 cases,progressive disease(PD)in 8 cases,and the overall response rate(CR +PR)was 44.4%,while those in B group were 3 cases,36 cases,21 cases,3 cases and 61.9%, respectively.There was significant difference between the two groups(χ2 =4.589,P =0.032).The improvement rate of life quality of B group(58.7%)was better than A group(33.3%),there was statistically significant difference between the two groups(χ2 =9.232,P =0.002).The rates of Ⅲ°+Ⅳ°abnormal liver and kidney function,myelo-suppression and gastrointestinal tract in A group were 19.0%,23.8% and 25.4%,those in B group were 15.9%, 20.6% and 30.2%,there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups (P =0.815,P =0.830, P =0.426).Conclusion Hyperthermia combined with chemotherapy is efficient and safe for advanced gastric carci-noma,and it is worthy of furthermore study and observation in clinic.
