Abstract:

Objective

To analyze the curative and adverse effects of paclitaxel liposome plus pirarubicin combined with radiotherapy for the patients with locally advanced breast cancer.

Methods

Totally 216 locally advanced breast cancer patients treated in Department of Breast Surgery,Chongqing Cancer Institute between January 2008 and December 2012 were involved for a prospective study. According to their wishes,the patients were divided into research group (n=112) and control group (n=104). In research group, the patients received intervenous drop infusion of paclitaxel liposome and paclitaxel on day 1, and synchronous radiotherapy for 20 days. In control group, the patients received intervenous drop infusion of paclitaxel liposome and paclitaxel on day 1. After 4 cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, the curative and adverse effects were evaluated. The total effective rate, surgical resection rate and cancer metastasis rate between two groups were compared using χ2 test, the tumor cell apoptosis index using t test, adverse reaction rates using nonparametric test and survival rate using Log-rank test.

Results

The total effective rate in research group was 86.6%(97/112),significantly higher than 68.3% in control group(71/104)(χ2=10.492, P=0.001); the surgical resection rate in research group was 95.5%(107/112),significantly higher than the 82.7% in control group (86/104)(χ2=9.349, P=0.002). After treatment,tumor cell apoptosis index in research group was(64.76±5.39)%,significantly higher than (53.81±4.91)% in control group (t=15.567, P=0.000);2-year progression-free survival in research group was 83.0% (93/112),significantly higher than 70.2%(73/104) in control group (χ2=5.000, P=0.025);overall survival in research group was 88.4%(99/112),significantly higher than 77.9%(81/104)in control group (χ2=4.287, P=0.038). Distant metastasis rate showed a significant difference between two groups [17.9%(20/112) than 27.9%(29/104),χ2 =3.092,P=0.079]. The incidences of myelosuppression, gastrointestinal reaction, cardiac toxicity and liver dysfunction were 65.2% (73/112), 67.0% (75/112), 14.3% (16/112) and 13.4% (15 / 112) in research group,61.5% (64/104),64.4% (67/104),11.5% (12/104) and 12.5% (13/104) in control group respectively, indicating no statistically significant diffenrence (Z=-0.867, -0.688, -0.614, -0.183,P= 0.386,0.491,0.539,0.855).

Conclusion

Chemotherapy of paclitaxel liposome plus pirarubicin combined with radiotherapy has definite efficacy for locally advanced breast cancer patients, with no obvious adverse effect, thus it is worthy of clinical application.
