Impact of Huangqi Granules Assisted FOLFOX Regimen on the Levels of Tumor Markers and Immune Function of Elderly Patients with Gastric Cancer
Objective To explore the impact of Huangqi granules assisted FOLFOX regimen on the levels of tumor markers and immune function of elderly patients with gastric cancer.Methods 82 elderly patients with gastric cancer were randomly divided into two groups.The control group was treated with FOLFOX regimen,and the observation group was treated with Huangqi granules on the basis of the control group.The levels of tumor markers,immune function indicators and adverse reactions were compared between the two groups.Results After treatment,the levels of CA125 and CEA in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group,the levels of CD4+and CD4+/CD8+were significantly higher than those in the control group,and the level of CD8+ was significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).The total incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusions Huangqi granules assisted FOLFOX regimen can significantly reduce the levels of serum tumor markers of elderly patients with gastric cancer,improve the immune function of patients,and reduce the occurrence of adverse reactions.
