Abstract:

Objective

To explore the clinical efficacy of avastin combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of gastrointestinal cancer.

Methods

82 elderly patients with gastrointestinal cancer were randomly divided into observation group and control group.There were 41 cases in each group.The control group was given conventional FOLFOX4 chemotherapy, while the observation group was given the monoclonal antibody Avastin in the basis of the FOLFOX4 chemotherapy.The clinical efficacy and the incidence of adverse reactions were observed.

Results

In the observation group, the clinical efficiency was 58.1%, the clinical symptom control rate was 88.4%, the cancer cell apoptosis rate was 27.3±2.83%.While in the control group, the clinical efficiency was 58.1%, the clinical symptom control rate was 88.4%, the cancer cell apoptosis rate was 27.3±2.83%.There were significant differences between the two groups in the above indicators(P<0.05). However, the incidence of toxic reaction did not show significant difference between the two groups(P>0.05).

Conclusion

Cetuximab can significantly improve the clinical efficacy in the treatment of gastrointestinal malignant tumors.
