ABSTRACT
Objectives To analyze comparatively the adverse reactions of Nedaplatin(NDP)and Cisplatin(DDP)in concurrent chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma and summarize the nursing points as well.Methods From March 2012 to March 2013,112 patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma were randomly divided into NDP group and DDP group.Besides intensity modulated radiotherapy for both groups,NDP group were treated with intravenous drop infusion of NDP by 100 mg/m2 and the control group with intravenous drop infusion of DDP by 100 mg/m2 both for three courses of once every three weeks (e.g.day one,day 22 and day 43 during the course).The two groups were compared in terms of therapeutic effects and incidences of adverse reactions.Results The complete remission rates of the NDP group and DDP group were 87.5%and 85.7%,respectively (P>0.05).The incidences of adverse reactions like gastrointestinal reactions and radioactive mucositis in the NDP group were significantly lower than those in the DDP group(P0.05). Conclusions Chemotherapy with NDP combined with radiotherapy for locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma has fewer adverse effects and is easy to be accepted by patients so that their quality of life can be improved.In the application of the two kinds of chemotherapy,we should pay attention to the adverse reactions on patients in order to give pertinent care.
