RÉSUMÉ
Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of etoposide capsule on metastatic breast cancer. Methods Forty-five advanced breast cancer patients treated with oral etoposide during Feb.1,2012 and Oct.31, 2016 in our department were enrolled in our study,with their general data,median number of treatment lines, treatment effect,common adverse reaction collected. Such indexes of objective response rate,rate of clinical benefit,disease control rate,progression free survival time were anlayzed. Results All patients received median five lines of etoposide capsule therapy. The objective response rate(ORR,CR + PR)was 6.7% and the clinical benefit rate(CBR,CR+PR+SD≥6.0 months)was 26.7% and the disease control rate(DCR,CR+PR+SD) was 68.9%.The median progression free survival time(PFS)was 4.0 months(95% CI:2.3~5.6).The main toxic-ities were grade 1-2 neutropenia(37.8%),grade 3-4 neutropenia(6.7%).Conclusion Etoposide capsule could be an option with efficacy and safety for metastatic breast cancer.
RÉSUMÉ
Objective To understand the combined effects of selenium (Se), germanium (Ge) on the level of Ca, Mg, Zn in the tissues of rats exposed to fluoride(F). Methods SD rats were divided into 5 groups and respectively treated with distilled water(control), 100 mg NaF/L(through drinking water), based on the fluoride treatment, Se, Ge were respectively given by gavage at the doses of 0.1 mg Na2SeO3/(kg?d), 10 mg Ge-132/(kg?d) and 0.1 mg Na2SeO3/(kg?d) plus 10 mg Ge-132/(kg?d) for 90 days. The body weight, activity, and general state were observed. The content of Ca,Mg,Zn in the serum,liver and kidneys were determined by flame atomization method. The content of F was detected by ion chromatography. Results The body weight in F+Se, F+Ge and F+Se+Ge groups were higher than that in F group and lower than that in the control group. The content of F in the liver, kidney in F+Se, F+Ge groups were higher than that in F+Se+Ge group(P
RÉSUMÉ
Objective To study the antagonistic effects of selenium and germanium (Se-Ge) in combination on the kidney damage induced by fluoride in rats.Methods Fifty SD rats were randomly divided into 5 groups,the control group (distilled water),fluoride group (NaF,100 mg/L),fluoride plus selenium group (100 mg/L NaF + 20 mg/L Na2SeO3),fluoride plus germanium group(100 mg/L NaF + 2 000 mg/L Ge-132) and fluoride plus selenium and germanium group(100 mg/L NaF+ 20 mg/L Na2SeO3+ 2 000 mg/L Ge-132),10 in each group (males and females were in the same number).The administration was conducted through gavage for 90 days.After 90 days of treatment,the kidneys were collected and the organ coefficients were calculated,MDA contents,SOD and GSH-Px activities in the tissue were determined and the histopathological examination was done.Results Fluoride decreased the organ coefficient of kidney,Se and/or Ge showed an obvious antagonism to fluoride,administration in combination was more efficient than singly.Na2SeO3 and/or Ge-132 had an antagonistic effect to fluoride in the increase of lipid peroxide(MDA) and decrease of the activity of glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px),superoxide dismutase(SOD).Na2SeO3 and/or Ge132 could prevent the pathologic damage caused by fluoride in the kidneys.Conclusion Na2SeO3 and Ge-132 in combination has an obvious antagonistic effect on fluoride-induced kidney damage.
