Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of sunitinib as first line treatment in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Methods This study included 46 Chinese patients who were diagnosed with metastatic RCC after radical nephrectomy. The patients received oral sunitinib (50 mg once daily on a 4 weeks on, 2 weeks off) on a 6 weeks cycle dose schedule until disease progression or intolerable toxicities occurred. Results The overall objective response rate was 32.6% (95% confidence interval [CI, 19.1% to 46. 1%]), and the disease control rate was 86.9%,with complete response (CR) 0 (0%), partial responses (PRs) 15 (32.6%), stable disease (SD) 25(54.3 %), and progression disease (PD) 6 ( 13. 1%). The median progression-free survival was 11 months, and the 1-year survival rate was 65.2%, while the median overall survival (mOS) has not been reached. The main adverse events included fatigue 33 (71.7%), skin discoloration 29 (63.0 %),anorexia 28 (60.9%), hand-foot syndrome 26 (56.5%), oral mucositis 25 (54.3%), hypertension 19 (41.3%), facial edema 18 (39.1%), diarrhea 17 (37.0%), hemorrhage 17 (37.0%), nausea 15 (32.6%), and hematological toxicity: leukopenia 32 (69.6%), neutropenia 30 (65.2%), thrombocytopenia 28 (60.9%), anemia 21 (45.7%). Most of grade 3/4 serious adverse events were thrombocytopenia in 15 (32. 6%) patients. Conclusions Sunitinib has a prominent effect in metastatic renal cell cancer in a Chinese population with mostly mild to moderate adverse reactions. More attention should be paid to grade 3/4 adverse reaction of thrombocytopenia.

?AlM: To observe the effect of Qingguang'an on elastic fiber, MMP-7, TlMP-1 in scarring area of filtration canal after glaucoma surgery through the four Qingguang'an effective groups and Qingguang'an granules, to discuss and compare their mechanism of action on scarring area of filtration canal.?METHODS:Four effective components of Qingguang'an were used in groups D, E, F, G and H after glaucoma surgery, compared with group A ( blank ) , group B (model) and group C ( MMC) to observe the effect of elastic fiber, MMP-7, TlMP-1 in scarring filtration canal.?RESULTS:Compared with the preoperative basic lOP and 2d , 1, 2, 4wk postoperative lOP of groups C, E and H, the lOP of three group rose up slower than other groups, and kept the lowest data at 28d. There was significant difference compared with the rest of A, B, D, F, G groups (P<0. 05). The area and density of elastic fiber in surgery group were significantly different with that of black control group ( P<0. 05 ), but there were no statistical differences between groups C and H, groups C and F, groups H and E (P>0. 05). The difference was statistically significant among other groups (P<0. 01).?CONCLUSlON:The scarring area of filtration canal after glaucoma surgery is the major reason which lead to the failure of surgery. Qingguang'an effective group 2, Qingguang'an granules and MMC could reduced the scar tissue by restrained the elastic fiber, TlMP - 1 and increased the MMP-7. By observing the experimental results that both Qingguang'an effective group 2 and Qingguang'an granules could restrained the scarring area of filtration canal, the effects were unbiased, Qingguang'an granules group is better than effective group 2.
