ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the protective effect of compound Danshen dripping pill on cardiac function in elderly patients with advanced breast cancer after radiotherapy and chemotherapy.Methods 150 patients with advanced breast cancer from February 2015 to April 2016in our hospital were selected and randomly divided into observation group and control group,75 cases in each group.The patients in the two groups were treated with CEF chemotherapy(CTX+EPI+5FU),on the basis of observation group,the injection of compound Danshen dripping pill.Two groups of cardiac function E/A,LVEF status were observed and compared.The levels of cTnI,CK,CK-MB,SOD,GSH,MDA and peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets were detected in the two groups,and observed the occurrence of adverse reactions in the two groups.Results After treatment,the serum levels of CK,MB-CK,cTnI,MDA and CD8+ were significantly decreased in the observation group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05),the CD4+,CD4+/CD8+,SOD,GSH,E/A,LVEF were significantly increased in the observation group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The level of cytokines and T lymphocyte subsets and cardiac function in the observation group were significantly better than those in the control group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The incidence rate of adverse reactions in the observation group(white blood cells,hair loss,nausea and vomiting)was significantlylower than that of the control group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion Compound Danshen dripping pills can protect the heart function of patients with advanced breast cancer after radiotherapy and chemotherapy.
