Clinical Observation of Nedaplatin Combined with Paclitaxel in the Treatment of Advanced Cervical Can-cer / 中国药房

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:To observe therapeutic efficacy and safety of nedaplatin combined with paclitaxel in the treatment of advanced cervical cancer. METHODS:Totally 100 patients with advanced cervical cancer were randomly divided into observation group(50 cases)and control group(50 cases). Both groups were given 6MV linear accelerator radiotherapy combined with intra-cavitary irradiation. Based on it,control group was additionally given Cisplatin injection 20 mg/m2,d1+Paclitaxel injection 35 mg/m2,d1 intravenously within 3 h. Observation group was additionally given Nedaplatin for injection 20 mg/m2,d1+Paclitaxel injection intravenously(same usage and dosage as control group). A treatment course lasted for a week,and both groups received 6 courses of treatment. Short-term efficacies of 2 groups were observed,and the levels of vascular endothelial growth factor A(VEGF-A), VEGF-C and VEGF-D,lymphatic microvessel density(LVD),microvessel density(MVD),toxic reaction were also observed be-fore and after treatment. RESULTS: Total response rate(52.00% vs. 32.00%)and disease control rate(86.00% vs. 66.00%)of ob-servation group were significantly higher than those of control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). After treatment,the levels of VEGF-A,VEGF-C and VEGF-D,LVD,MVD in 2 groups were significantly lower than before treatment,and the obser-vation group was significantly lower than the control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). The incidence of thrombocyto-penia in observation group was significantly higher than control group,and the incidence of nausea and vomiting was significantly lower than control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Nedaplatin combined with paclitaxel can im-prove short-term efficacy of patients with advanced cervical cancer,reduce gastrointestinal reaction,VEGF level and inhibit the generation of tumor vessel,but great importance should be attached to platelet toxic reaction.
