Clinical Study of Modified Banxia Xiexin Decoction Treatment on Gastric Cancer

Randomized Clinical Trial:Clinical Study of Modified Banxia Xiexin Decoction Treatment on Gastric Cancer

Research purpose To elucidate the effect mechanism and clinical effective of Modified Banxia Xiexin Decoction in the prevention and treatment of gastric cancer. From genes related to cell differentiation, proliferation, apoptosis, tumor invasion and metastasis, genes related to immune inflammation and immune escape and other possible aspects to elucidate the effective and mechanism of Modified Banxia Xiexin Decoction's treatment on gastric cancer

Modified Banxia Xiexin Decoction treatment and mechanism on Gastric Cancer. Main Responsibility Person: Mingyu Sun research center#Shuguang Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine Trial Objective#Observe the clinical efficacy and mechanism of Modified Banxia Xiexin Decoction in the treatment gastric cancer Therapeutic Schedule#In this study, 146patients with gastric cancer who received chemotherapy in the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery and Oncology, Shuguang Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine were recruited and divided into groups according to random number table method, namely, 73 patients in the Modified Banxia Xiexin Decoction combined chemotherapy group and 73 patients in the Placebo granules combined chemotherapy group.Modified Banxia Xiexin Decoction group was treated with 18 weeks of Chinese patent medicine Modified Banxia Xiexin Decoction at the same time of chemotherapy. The Overall survival, Progression-free survival, Solid tumor efficacy, TCM syndrome score, quality of life score, Tumor markers, Immune function and adverse reactions of the two groups before and 18 weeks after treatment were observed and compared. Elucidate the possible mechanism of action of Modified Banxia Xiexin Decoction in the treatment of gastric cancer patients.
