Objective To evaluate the relationship between sternum protection and bone marrow suppression in postoperative radiotherapy for esophageal carcinoma. Methods Total of 98 postoperative patients with thoracic esophageal carcinoma were randomly divided into experimental group (52 cases) and control group (46 cases). All patients were given intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), with the dose of 50-50.4 Gy. The patients in experimental group were irradiated by 6 fields (4-fields in front, 2-fields behind) which were crossed to avoid direct exposure to the sternum. The patients in control group were irradiated by 5 fields (3-fields in front, 2-fields behind) with front-middle of the field passing through the sternum. Concurrently all patients received 2 cycles of cisplatin chemotherapy. Results Dmean, V20 and V30 of the sternum in the experimental group were (20.21 ±3.60) Gy, (40.78 ±7.19) % and (33.78 ±9.44) %, which were lower than those in the control group [(30.91±5.21) Gy, (81.01±4.81) %, (51.60±6.84) %], respectively (P<0.05). However, the volume and dose distribution of lung, spinal cord and heart were similar between the two groups (P> 0.05). Both the incidence rates of bone marrow suppression at 14th day and 35th day after radiotherapy were significantly higher in the control group (52.2%, 73.9%) than those in the experimental group (28.8 %, 50.0 %) (P< 0.05), and the incidence rate of bone marrow suppression at 7th day after radiotherapy was similar between the two groups. Conclusion Protecting and sketching for sternum in postoperative radiotherapy for esophageal carcinoma can reduce the incidence of bone marrow suppression effectively, which would not increase the radiation dose in the lung, heart and spinal cord.

Aim To investigate the efficacy and mech-anism of FW-04-806 against HER2-positive gastric cancer cell lines,and the combination effect of FW-04-806 with lapatinib. Methods MTT assay was used to assess cell proliferous inhibition of FW-04-806 . The in-hibitory effect of colony formation was tested by colony formation. The protein expression, apoptotic induction and cell cycle arrest were detected by flow cytometry. Co-immunoprecipitation was used to investigate protein-protein interactions. The expression change of proteins was showed by immunohistochemistry. Western blot was applied to reveal the protein expression of related pro-liferous and apoptotic signaling pathway. The tumor growth inhibition was evaluated in tumor xenograft model. Results FW-04-806 obviously inhibited cell proliferation and colony formation in HER2 positive gastric cancer cell lines NCI-N87, OE19, with IC50 of (24. 17 ± 0. 02 ) , ( 29. 61 ± 0. 03 ) μmol · L-1 , re-spectively;FW-04-806 induced G2-M arrest and apop-tosis in a dose-dependent manner;200 mg · kg-1 of FW-04-806 showed tumor growth inhibition of 48. 0%( P < 0. 01 ) . In addition, FW-04-806 dissociated Hsp90/CDC37 complex, followed by degradation of HER2 and Akt,inhibiting the phosporylation of HER2, Akt and ERK, and increasing expression of apoptotic proteins,such as cleaved caspase-3 and cleaved parp. Furthermore,the combination of FW-04-806 with lapa-tinib in vitro was synergistic in NCI-N87 , which en-hanced the inhibition of cell proliferation and increased apoptotic rates. Conclusions FW-04-806 shows po-tent efficacy against HER2-positive gastric cancer cell lines in vitro and in vivo;FW-04-806 is synergistic with lapatinib.
