Purpose:To evaluate the results of combination chemotherapy with MxFL[mitoxantrone(MIT),Fluaroracil (5 FU),Leucovorin (CF)]in the treatment of metastatic breast cancer.Methods:From 1993 through 1998,41 patients with metastatic breast cancer were enrolled in this study, Twenty six patients had no prior chemotherapy and 15 were had prior chemotherapy in nineteen patients estrogen receptor (ER) was positive. MIT 12 mg/m 2 by was given intravenous titrate the first day; continuous 5 FU 320 mg/m 2 by intravenous titrate the first day;continuous 5 FU 320 mg/m 2 by intravenous titrate was given for one hundred and twenty hours during the first day to the fifth day; at the same time, CF 50 mg/m 2 by intravenous titrate, once every twelve hours for five days. Repeated every three weeks. Results:Complete response was observed in 11 patients and partial response was observed in 19 patients with an overall response rate of 73.2%. The median response duration was 17 months and the median survival period was 23 months. The dose limiting toxicity was neutropenia which was seen in 85.4% of the treated cases (19.5% in grades Ⅲ and Ⅳ). Stomatitis was observed in 9.8% of the patients and local venous toxicity was observed in 12.2% of the patients. Conclusions:A high response rate is obtained in metastatic breast cancer treated by MxFL. Such treatment may be used as first line chemotherapy for metastatic breast cancer.

Objective To compare the results of clinical treatment of shoulder and neck pain in patients with and without upper cervical degeneration. Methods Fifty two patients with diagnosed shoulder and neck muscular fasciitis(with high tension and tenderness on the trapezius) were divided into 3 groups: group A,with upper cervical degeneration(16 cases);group B,with upper cervical degeneration(15 cases),and group C,without cervical degeneration(21 cases).There were no significant difference in gender,age and course of disease among the 3 groups.Patients in 3 groups were regularly treated by naprapathy and electric therapy(intermediate frequency).Cervical traction and manipulation was added to the patients in group A.Treatment for 3 groups lasted for 2 weeks.The Visual Analog Scale(VAS) scores and Odom criteria before and after treatment were used for determining the results of clinical treatment. Results The VAS scores after treatment were significantly improved in group A and group C as compared with that in group B(P=0.000).Odom criteria of group A(93.8%) and group C(95.2%) were excellent and good without significant difference(P=0.692),but they were significantly higher than that of group C(P=0.001). Conclusions Patients with shoulder and neck pain accompanied by upper cervical degeneration(narrowing of intervertebral foramen) should be treated with cervical traction and manipulation beside the routine therapy.

Objective:To investigate the expression of CD55 in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and its correlations with prognosis.Methods: The expressions of CD55 was detected by immunohistochemistry Streptavidin-Peroxidase method in 100 cases of triple-negative breast cancer and 50 cases of adjacent-carcinoma tissues, with clinical and pathological features and follow-up data, the Cox model analysis was established and to analyze the prognostic factors. Results: The positive expression of CD55 was 56.0% in the tissues from triple-negative breast cancer, whereas its positive rate was 8.0% in the corresponding adjacent breast tissues, with statistical significance (x2=32.0,P<0.05). The expression of CD55 was significantly related with tumor size, clinical stage and axillary lymph node metastases (x2=7.404,x2=8.688,x2=4.802;P<0.05); the expression of CD55 did not show correlation to age, and histologic grade. Multivariate analysis showed that the age, clinical stage, CD55 protein expression and axillary lymph node metastasis were the independent risk factors affecting the 5-year disease-free rate of patients and that clinical stage and axillary lymph node metastasis were the independent risk factors affecting the 5-year overall rate of patients.Conclusion: The expression of CD55 might be related to the development and prognosis of triple-negative breast cancer. The expression of CD55 may be used as one of the indicators in determining the progress and prognosis of TNBC.
