Objective Controversy exists over the effects of postoperative chemoradiotherapy or chemotherapy in the treatment of rectal cancer. This study aims to evaluate the clinical effect of chemoradiotherapy or chemotherapy following radical surgery for stage Ⅱ-Ⅲrectal cancer. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 125 cases of stageⅡ-Ⅲrectal cancer receiving chemo-radiotherapy ( n=69) or chemotherapy ( n=56) after radical surgery. The patients in the chemoradiotherapy group were treated by 3-di-mensional conformal or intensity-modulated radiotherapy at a total irradiation dose of 45-50 Gy/25-28 times and concurrently by XE-LOX/FOLFOX chemotherapy for 4-6 cycles. Those in the chemotherapy group underwent XELOX/FOLFOX chemotherapy only, at the same dose and for the same length of time as the former. Results The therapeutic effect on stageⅡ-Ⅲrectal cancer was not correla-ted with the gender, family history, smoking history, drinking history, high-fat intake, sedentariness, obesity or constipation of the pa-tient, nor with the TNM stage, pathological grade or differentiation degree of the disease. The 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates were sig-nificantly higher in the chemoradiotherapy group (86. 9%, 76. 8%, and 57. 9%) than in the chemotherapy group (71. 4%, 58. 9%, and 39. 3%) (P<0. 05), while the 1-, 2-, and 3-year recurrence rates were remarkably lower in the former (5. 8%, 11. 6%, and 18. 8%) than in the latter (17. 9%, 26. 8%, and 37. 5%) (P<0. 05). Statistically significant differences were found between the che-moradiotherapy and chemotherapy groups in the incidence of diarrhea (39. 1%vs 14. 3%, P<0. 05), but not in such adverse reactions as bone marrow suppression, nausea, or vomiting (P>0. 05). Conclusion For stageⅡ-Ⅲrectal cancer, postoperative chemoradio-therapy is a safe and effective option , which can evidently reduce local recurrence and improve 3-year survival of the patient.

The incidence rate is high in Asia country, accounting for 15 %-20 % of Non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Every phynotype has different heterogeneity, therapeutic effect and prognosis are also different. There is no standard rigemen for T cell lymphoma at present. CHOP like regimen is commonly used. But therapeutic effect is not as good as we expected. Clinical research shows that dose and intensity regimen, such as m-BACOD,ProMACE-CytaBOM, MACOP-B, do not exhibit survival advantage compared with CHOP regimen. New treatment includes cytotoxic drug, such as gemcitabine. As first line therapy for T cell lymphoma or as salvage therapy for refractory or relapsed T cell lymphoma, the therapeutic effect is good. Gemcitabine based regimen is new for PTCL. Alemtuzumab is a humanized CD52 mono-clonal antibody and is expected as good effect on PTCL therapy. Zanolimumab is a humanized mono-clonal antibody which targets CD4 antigen on T cell. Phase Ⅱclinical research has also got good effect. Denileukin difiitox and Pralatrexate also have good effect on PTCL therapy in clinical researches. Autologous stem cell transplantation(ASCT) is also used in PTCL therapy.

Objective:This study was conducted to evaluate and discuss the curative effect and toxicity of gemcitabine, navel-bine, and therarubicin (GNT) regimen for patients with refractory or relapsed T-cell lymphoma (TCL). Methods:A total of 69 patients with refractory or relapsed TCL treated with GNT were enrolled. The treatment protocol was set as follows:800 mg/m2 gemcitabine ad-ministered at 1 and 8 d;25 mg/m2 navelbine administered at 1 d;and 20 mg/m2 therarubicin administered at 1 d. This protocol was re-peated every three weeks. The median cycle was 4 (range:2 to 6). Results:The overall response rate was 65.2%and the achieved com-plete remission was 29.0%. Hematology toxicities were the main adverse reactions observed in all of the patients. The incidence rates of grades 1 and 2 toxicity in leukopenia or neutropenia, anemia, and thrombocytopenia were 50.7%, 33.3%, and 26.1%, respectively. Grades 3 and 4 treatment-associated toxicities were detected in 23.1%of the responding patients. One-, three-, and five-year estimated overall survival (OS) of the whole cohort were 71.7%, 47.3%, and 32.4%, respectively. The median OS was 36 months. Conclusion:GNT was effective and suitable for patients with refractory or relapsed TCL.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy and toxicities of bendamustine hydrochloride in patients with rituximab-re-fractory indolent B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). Methods:A total of 25 patients with rituximab-refractory NHL received bendamustine hydrochloride 120 mg/m2 intravenously on days 1 and 2 of the 21-day cycle. The short-term response, progression free survival, and toxicities were evaluated. Results:The total number of chemotherapy of the 25 patients was 122 cycles, and the median number was 5 cycles. All patients could be evaluated for efficacy. Among the patients, 6 had complete remission, 13 had partial remis-sion, 3 had stable disease, and 3 had progression disease. The overall response rate and clinical benefit rate were 76%and 88%, respec-tively. Until the deadline, 13 patients had progression disease. The median duration of response was 8 months, and the median progres-sion-free survival (PFS) was 9.3 months. Subgroup analysis showed that PFS is significantly related to bone marrow involvement and serum LDH level (P<0.05). The main adverse effects were myelosuppression, gastrointestinal reactions, and infection. Rash was found in 2 patients, and 1 case of gastric cancer was discovered after 5 cycles of treatment. Conclusion:Bendamustine hydrochloride was ef-fective and tolerable in patients with rituximab-refractory indolent B-cell NHL.
