ABSTRACT
Abstract Background Anthracyclines-based regimen (5-fluorouracil, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide (FAC); cyclophosphamide, epirubicin, and 5-fluorouracil [CEF]) and non-anthracycline based regimens (cyclophosphamide, methotrexate, and 5-fluorouracil [CMF]) are widely used as neoadjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer patients. Objective The present study was conducted to observe the effects of FAC, CEF, and CMF regimen on cognition and circulatory proinflammatory cytokines (interleukin 6 [IL-6] and interleukin 1β [IL-1β]) for the duration of three cycles of chemotherapy in breast cancer patients. Methods Eighty newly diagnosed HER-2 negative breast cancer patients were enrolled and divided into 3 groups as FAC- (n= 27), CEF- (n= 26), and CMF- (n= 27) receiving patients. Serum IL-6 and IL-1β levels were measured by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and cognition was assessed using the Mini-Mental State examination (MMSE) questionnaire. Results Anthracycline-based regimen was found to increase the levels of IL-6, IL-1β, and decreased MMSE scores compared with CMF regimen (p< 0.05). Conclusion Anthracycline-based regimen caused comparatively higher peripheral inflammation, which could be the reason for more decline in cognition in anthracycline-receiving patients than non-anthracycline group.
RESUMO
Resumo Antecedentes Regime baseado em antraciclinas (5-fluorouracil, doxorrubicina e ciclofosfamida [FAC]; ciclofosfamida, epirrubicina e 5-fluorouracil [CEF]) e regimes não baseados em antraciclina (ciclofosfamida, metotrexato e 5-fluorouracil (CMF]) são amplamente utilizados como quimioterapia neoadjuvante para pacientes com câncer de mama. Objetivo O presente estudo foi realizado para observar os efeitos do regime FAC, CEF e CMF na cognição e citocinas pró-inflamatórias circulatórias (interleucina 6 [IL-6] e interleucina 1β [IL-1β]) durante três ciclos de quimioterapia em pacientes com câncer de mama. Métodos Oitenta pacientes recém-diagnosticadas com câncer de mama HER-2 negativo foram recrutadas e divididas em 3 grupos de pacientes que receberam FAC (n= 27), CEF (n= 26) ou CMF (n= 27). Os níveis séricos de IL-6 e IL-1β foram medidos por enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) e a cognição foi avaliada por meio do questionário Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE). Resultados O regime baseado em antraciclinas aumentou os níveis de IL-6, IL-1β e diminuiu os escores do MMSE em comparação com o regime CMF (p< 0,05). Conclusão O regime baseado em antraciclinas causou inflamação periférica comparativamente mais alta, o que pode ser a razão para maior declínio na cognição em pacientes que receberam antraciclinas do que no grupo que não recebeu antraciclina.
