Despite the age, the profession, the living locality, patients with breast cancer of II, III stage, treated by surgery plus radiotherapy, in post-operation follow up at K Hospital. 60 patients were treated by tablets of vitexin for 2 months and 30 controlled subjects used 50mg vitamin C as placebo. In vitexin group after radiotherapy, lympho cell count was restored by 71.6%, while in control group, the restoration of lympho cell counts has no statistic signification. Results of study show the efficacy of vitexin after radiotherapy for breast cancer patients, the immunological response is strengthened

Study on 74 breast cancer patients after radiotherapy in K Hospital, Hanoi. Results: Vitexin capsule decreased the lesion of leukocyte cells after radiotherapy compared with control group. After radiotherapy, TCD4, TCD8 lymphocytes decreased statistical significantly in comparison with before treatment. After taking drug for 2 months (4 capsules/day, 100mg/capsule divided 2 times), the cells were being recovery with different levels, the number of TCD8 in Vitexin group was higher than those in the control group. The findings suggested that the Vitexin had ability to recover quickly the numerous of damaged immune cells during radiotherapy

Study was conducted on 90 patients, their 30 subjects were treated in 2 months with Vitexin tablets and 30 controlled subjects with placebo containing 50 mg of vitamin C. Results showed that on breast cancer patients who had undergone radiotherapy, 2 months use of Vitexin had promoted immunologic response. The number of lymphicyte raised up 71.6% in comparing with control, while with 2 months treatment by vitamin C, the restoration of lymphocyte level has not statistital signification
Restorative effect of Vilexin on lymphocyte tranformation in breast cancer patients who

A study on 115 patients with breast cancer treated by postoperative radiation and vitexin within 6 months has shown that there were changes of serum concentration of products of lipid peroxydation in patients with breast cancer in the different duration of treatment. An increase of serum MDA after radiation showed an increase of oxidation stress. Vitexin helped the establishment of oxidation balance only after a month of the treatment. The cell-mediated reduction of immunoresponse was a outcome of oxidation stress. The recovery of response of lymphocyte transform in the peripheral blood was corresponding to the improvement of oxidation balance by drug.

60 breast cancer patients in the II and III phrase were treated on the regime: Surgery with after radiotherapy at the II radio Department, K Hospital in Ha Noi. These breast cancer patients after radiotherapy, Vitexin was used within continuous 2 months and 30 patients in the control group with placebo of 50mg Vitamine C. The number of lymphocytes were significantly increased after radiotherapy. In the presence of phytohemaglutinin, Vitexin also restores the number of lumphocytes to the level before radiotherapy significantly.
