Abstract

Objective:To study the correlation between in vitro chemosensitivity of Fluorouraci(5-Fu) + Mitomycia (MMC) and its clinical response and prognosis in human colorectal cancers. Method:The chemosensitivity of 5-Fu + MMC was tested in 169 Dukes B and C colorectal cancers with the MTT method,and the progression-free internal and prognosis in 4 years following the surgery were observed. Result:Based on the in vitro chemosensitivity of 5-Fu + MMC, 100 patients were divided into an antagonistic group(28 patients) in which their relapse rates were 57. 1% and a synergistic-additive group(72 patients) in which their relapse rates were 22.2% (P
