Objective To investigate the clinical effect and safety of the cell therapy of inhibition of antigen -presentation attenuators ( iAPA ) combined with adjuvant chemotherapy in the treatment of colon cancer . Methods From February 2014 to October 2015,the clinical data of 40 patients with colon cancer in the People's Hospital of Wenzhou were analyzed retrospectively.They were divided into control group and study group by the random digital table,with 20 cases in each group.The control group received mFOLFOX6 chemotherapy(treatment for 6 months),and the study group was treated with iAPA on the basis of the control group (treatment for 6 cycle).The clinical efficacy,levels of immune function indicators ( CD+3,CD+4,CD+8,CD+4/CD+8) before treatment and after treatment,the incidence of toxic and side effects and quality of life (QOL) score of the two groups were recorded.And the survival rates were statistically analyzed.Results The total effective rate of the study group was higher than that of the control group (85.0% vs.55.0%,χ2=4.286,P<0.05).After treatment,the serum levels of CD +3,CD+4,CD+8,CD+4/CD+8in the study group were higher than those in the control group,while the serum level of CD +8was lower in the study group than that in the control group,the differences were statistically significant (t=2.657,3.160,5.700,2.326,all P<0.05).There were no side effects of the degree of Ⅳin the two groups.The incidence rates of diarrhea(25.0%),vomiting and nausea (20.0%),liver function damage (25.0%) and bone marrow suppression (25.0%) in the study group were lower than those in the control group (χ2=5.013,5.227,5.013,6.465,all P<0.05).After treatment,the QOL scores of the two groups were higher than those before treatment (all P<0.05),and the QOL score of the study group was higher than that of the control group (t=4.739,P<0.05).The survival rate of the study group was higher than that of the control group after 24 and 30 months of treatment(χ2=5.013,4.912,all P<0.05 ).Conclusion The iAPA combined with adjuvant chemotherapy in the treatment of colon cancer can regulate the immune function of the patients,and improve the treatment effect of the disease.It helps to improve the QOL and prolong the life period of the patients,reduce the incidence of side effects,and it is safe.

Objective:To further improve the understanding of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH), we retrospectively analyzed and summarized the clinical characteristics, treatment status, and survival status of patients with PNH in Zhejiang Province.Methods:This study included 289 patients with PNH who visited 20 hospitals in Zhejiang Province. Their clinical characteristics, comorbidity, laboratory test results, and medications were analyzed and summarized.Results:Among the 289 patients with PNH, 148 males and 141 females, with a median onset age of 45 (16-87) years and a peak onset age of 20-49 years (57.8% ). The median lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) level was 1 142 (604-1 925) U/L. Classified by type, 70.9% (166/234) were classical, 24.4% (57/234) were PNH/bone marrow failure (BMF), and 4.7% (11/234) were subclinical. The main clinical manifestations included fatigue or weakness (80.8%, 235/289), dizziness (73.4%, 212/289), darkened urine color (66.2%, 179/272), and jaundice (46.2%, 126/270). Common comorbidities were hemoglobinuria (58.7% ), renal dysfunction (17.6% ), and thrombosis (15.0% ). Moreover, 82.3% of the patients received glucocorticoid therapy, 70.9% required blood transfusion, 30.7% used immunosuppressive agents, 13.8% received anticoagulant therapy, and 6.3% received allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The 10-year overall survival (OS) rate was 84.4% (95% CI 78.0% -91.3% ) . Conclusion:Patients with PNH are more common in young and middle-aged people, with a similar incidence rate between men and women. Common clinical manifestations include fatigue, hemoglobinuria, jaundice, renal dysfunction, and recurrent thrombosis. The 10-year OS of this group is similar to reports from other centers in China.
