中文摘要:
  目的 观察不同剂量表阿霉素在乳腺癌辅助治疗中引起的心脏毒性,并评估远期疗效。方法 根据CEF辅助化疗方案中表阿霉素的用药剂量,将180例乳腺癌术后患者随机分为高剂量组(90mg/m2)、中剂量组(70mg/m2)和低剂量组(50mg/m2),主要观测指标为患者心脏毒性反应,次要观测指标为5年总生存率和5年无病生存率。结果 高、中、低剂量组化疗期间出现心悸、胸闷、夜间阵发性呼吸困难等不适分别为6例、4例、3例,发生心电图改变分别为7例、5例和4例,超声心动图LVEF<50%各有1例,三组比较差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。5年无病生存率统计高剂量组73.3% (44/60),中剂量组为53.3% (32/60),低剂量组为41.6% (25/60)。5年总生存率统计高剂量组为85% (51/60),中剂量组为68.3% (41/60),低剂量组为58.3% (35/60)。三组间5年无病生存率和5年总生存率差异均具统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论 大剂量表阿霉素辅助化疗能够提高乳腺癌术后患者的5年OS和5年DFS,且心脏毒性反应为轻中度,患者耐受性较好。
英文摘要:
    Objective: The aim of the study was to observe the cardiac toxicity caused by different doses of epirubicin in the adjuvant treatment of breast cancer and to evaluate the long-term efficacy. Methods: The 180 cases of breast cancer patients received epirubicin based adjuvant chemotherapy. The patients were randomly assigned to high-dosage group (90 mg/m2), medium-dosage group (70 mg/m2) and low-dosage group (50 mg/m2), the primary endpoint was cardiac toxicity. The secondary outcomes were the 5-year overall survival (OS) and 5-year disease-free survival (DFS). Results: During chemotherapy, the clinical symptoms such as palpitation, dyspnea and paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea occurred in 6 patients with the high-dosage group, 4 patients with the medium-dosage group and 3 patients with the low-dosage group. The number of patients who had changed in electrocardiogram (ECG) was 7, 5 and 4 in three groups, respectively. The echocardiographic showed each group had only one case with LVEF < 50%, there was no significantly difference (P > 0.05). In the three groups, the 5-year DFS rates were 73.3% (44/60) in high-dose group, 53.3% (32/60) in medium-dose group and 41.6% (25/60) in low dose group. The 5-year OS rates were 85.0% (51/60), 68.3% (41/60) and 58.3% (35/60) in three groups, respectively. The differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The high-dose epirubicin in adjuvant chemotherapy with CEF (cyclophosphamide, epirubicin and fluorouracil) regimen could improve the 5-year OS rate and 5-year DFS rate on patients of breast cancer. The cardiotoxicity was mild-moderate and well tolerated.
