The cross-sectional study was carried out to investigate plasma malondialdehyde (MDA) concentrations of 104 patients with cervical cancer pre-post radiation therapy at K Hospital and of 35 healthy women as controls. The result showed that: the plasma MDA concentrations in the patients significantly increased, compared to the controls (p0.01). The concentrations after radiotherapy increased more than before radiotherapy (p<0.05). The plasma MDA concentrations of the patients gradually increased following to the disease’s stages: IIa compared to Ib stage (p<0.05), IIb compared to Ib (p<0.01) and IIIb compared to IIb (p<0.05). The MDA concentrations also increased by aged

Study on 62 patients with the stage Ib and IIa cervical cancer pre- and post- radiotherapy and 30 healthy controls aged from 30-35 years old. The result showed that activites of antioxidant enzymes (SOD, GPx and GR) of patients with the stage Ib and IIa cervical cancer were significantly decreased compared to those of healthy controls. Activites of these enzyms clearly decreased post-radiotherapy, and more clearly at the 21st day post-radiotherapy. TAS and Hb concentration of cancer patient decreased compared with control group and they trend to recover at the 21st day post-radiotherapy
