Objective To investigate the efficacy of Docetaxel injection and Capecitabine tablets combined with Oxaliplatin injection in chemotherapy for patients after esophageal cancer surgery. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 101 patients with esophageal cancer who underwent radical surgery from June 2010 to December 2012, including 58 males and 43 females. According to the different treatment methods they were divided into a study group (58 patients, 32 males and 26 females, postoperatively receiving Docetaxel injection, Capecitabine tablets, Oxaliplatin injection and chemotherapy) and a control group (43 patients, 26 males and 17 females, taking Docetaxel injection and Capecitabine tablets for 4 consecutive courses). We compared the difference in the outcomes between the two groups. Results There was no significant difference in the level of serum anticancer antigen (CEA), carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125), carbohydrate antigen 199 (CA199) and squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC) before chemotherapy between two groups (P>0.05). After chemotherapy, the level of serum CEA, CA125, CA199, SCC in the study group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.05). The 1-year survival rate of the study group was 92.59% and the 2-year survival rate was 70.37%, which were not significantly different from those of the control group (P>0.05). The 3-year survival rate of the study group was significantly higher than that of the control group (57.41 %vs. 32.43%, P<0.05). The mean survival time of the study group was longer than that of the control group (31 monthsvs. 22 months, P=0.001). Conclusion Docetaxel injection and Capecitabine tablets combined with Oxaliplatin injection for the treatment of esophageal cancer surgery can significantly reduce levels of tumor markers in serum after esophageal cancer surgery, and is favorable for the long-term survival of patients, but adverse reactions should be noted.
Objective To compare and evaluate the effectiveness and safety of irinotecan (IRI) versus oxaplatin (OXA), in combination with 5-FU/LV for patients with advanced colorectal cancer. Methods The literature search, study selection and assessment, data collection and analysis were undertaken by two reviewers according to the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions. Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) or quasi-RCTs comparing IRI versus OXA, in combination with 5-FU/LV in the treatment of advanced colorectal cancer were collected. Results Seven studies involving 2107 patients were included. The OXA/5-FU/LV regimen was superior or at least equal to the IRI/5-FU/LV regimen in prolonging overall survival and time to progression. The OXA/5-FU/LV regimen showed a higher response rate and was associated with lower toxicities. Conclusion Compared with IRI, OXA is more appropriate for the treatment of advanced colorectal cancer when combined with 5-FU/LV.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the efficacy and safety of capecitabine combined with irinotecan (CAPIRI) versus capecitabine combined with oxaliplatin (CAPOX) for patients with advanced/metastatic colorectal cancer.MethodsPubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, VIP, WanFang Data and CNKI databases were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on CAPIRI versus CAPOX for patients with advanced/metastatic colorectal cancer from inception to August 2018. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3 software.ResultsA total of 12 RCTs involving 1 049 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that: there were no significant differences in complete response (CR), partial response (PR), stable disease (SD), progression disease (PD), overall respond rate (ORR), median progression-free survival (mPFS), and median overall survival (mOS) between two groups (P>0.05). However, CARIRI group was lower on the disease control rate (RR=0.93, 95%CI 0.86 to 1.00, P=0.04) than CAPOX group. Incidence of diarrhea was higher in CAPIRI group (RR=1.83, 95%CI 1.37 to 2.45, P<0.000 1). However, the incidence rate of peripheral neurotoxicity in CAPOX group was higher (RR=0.13, 95%CI 0.05 to 0.35, P<0.000 1). There were no significant differences between two groups in the incidence rates of nausea and vomiting, hand-foot syndrome, anemia, thrombocytopenia, leukocytopenia and alopecia (P>0.05).ConclusionsCurrent evidence shows that two groups are equivalent in terms of curative effects. CAPIRI has a higher incidence rate of diarrhea, while CAPOX has a higher risk of peripheral neurotoxicity. Due to limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are required to verify above conclusions.

Conclusion Oxaliplatin combined with S1 capsule is effective on advanced gastric cancer, and the adverse effects are tolerable.
Objective To investigate whether miRNA (miR)-34a mediates oxaliplatin (OXA) resistance of colon cancer cells by inhibiting macroautophagy via the transforming growth factor (TGF)-β/Smad4 pathway. Methods miR-34a expression levels were detected in colon cancer tissues and colon cancer cell lines by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Computational search, functional luciferase assay, and Western blotting method were used to demonstrate the downstream target of miR-34a in colon cancer cells. Cell viability was measured with cell counting kit-8. Apoptosis and macroautophagy of colon cancer cells were analyzed by flow cytometry and transmission electron microscopy, and expressions of Beclin1 and LC3Ⅱ protein were detected by Western blotting method. Results Expression of miR-34a was significantly reduced while expressions of TGF-β and Smad4 mRNA were increased in colon cancer patients treated with OXA-based chemotherapy. OXA treatment also resulted in decreased miR-34a expression levels and increased TGF-β and Smad4 expression levels in both parental cells and the OXA-resistant colon cancer cells. Activation of macroautophagy contributed to OXA resistance in colon cancer cells. Expression levels of Smad4 and miR-34a in colon cancer patients had a significant inverse correlation and overexpressing miR-34a inhibited macroautophagy activation by directly targeting Smad4 through the TGF-β/Smad4 pathway. OXA-induced downregulation of miR-34a and increased drug resistance by activating macroautophagy in colon cancer cells. Conclusion miR-34a mediates OXA resistance of colon cancer by inhibiting autophagy via the TGF-β/Smad4 pathway.
Objective To assess clinical efficacy and safety of Oxaliplatin plus Vinorelbine in the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods We used the methods of Cochrane reviews, electronically searched the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL, Issue 3, 2008), MEDLINE (1966 to April 2008), EMbase (1984 to Dec. 2006), Cancerlit (1996 to Dec. 2005), CBM (1978 to April 2008), CNKI (1994 to April 2008), VIP (1989 to April 2008), and handsearched 15 Chinese medical core journals, to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of Oxaliplatin combined with Vinorelbine in the treatment of advanced NSCLC. RCTs were included according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, the quality of included trials was evaluated and RevMan 4.2.8 software was used for metaanalyses after the extraction of the data. Results Seventeen RCTs involving 1 399 patients with advanced NSCLC were included. All of them reported the use of a random method, but with no detailed reports of allocation concealment and whether the blind method was used. The results of meta-analyses showed that NO program (vinorelbine + oxaliplatin) and NP program (vinorelbine + cisplatin) were similar in efficient rate (RR=0.97, 95%CI 0.85 to 1.10) and 1-year survival rate (RR=0.82, 95%CI 0.66 to 1.03). Compared with NP program, NO program induced lower III-IV degree of nausea and vomiting response (RR=0.20, 95%CI 0.14 to 0.28), III-IV degree of leukopenia reaction (RR=0.64, 95%CI 0.52 to 0.79), and I-II degree of renal damage RR=0.27, 95%CI 0.11 to 0.60) after chemotherapy. No study reported treatmentrelated death. Conclusion Oxaliplatin and Cisplatin plus Vinorelbine are similar in efficacy in the treatment of advanced NSCLC. Oxaliplatin plus Vinorelbine could be used as a chemotherapy of advanced NSCLC because of its better tolerance and more liability to be accepted by patients. However, highly-potential selection bias and measurement bias would affect the demonstration level of the outcome, so more high-quality double-blind RCTs are needed.
Objective To observe the effect of forkhead box Q1(FOXQ1) short hairpin RNA (shRNA) on sensitivity of oxaliplatin chemotherapy in hepatpcellular carcinoma cell line SMMC-7721. Methods ① Complementary shRNA oligonucleotides targeting the FOXQ1 gene and negative control-shRNA were designed and inserted into lentiviral vector. shRNA lentivirus vectors were transfected into SMMC-7721 cells and the lentivirus vector with the best silencing effect was screened. ② SMMC-7721 cells were divided into interference group (SMMC-7721 cells were transfected with FOXQ1-shRNA-1), negative control group (SMMC-7721 cells were transfected with negative control-shRNA), and blank control group (SMMC-7721 cells did not received any treatment), and the expressions of FOXQ1 mRNA and its protein in SMMC-7721 cells were detected at 72 hours after transfection. ③ SMMC-7721 cells were divided into interference group, negative control group, blank control group, interference+oxaliplatin group, negative control+oxaliplatin group, and blank control+oxaliplatin group, apoptosis rates and viability of SMMC-7721 cells were detected at 48 hours after transfection. Results ① The expressions of FOXQ1 mRNA and its protein in SMMC-7721 cells of the FOXQ1-shRNA-1 group were both lower than those of the FOXQ1-shRNA-2 group and FOXQ1-shRNA-3 group (P<0.05), so the FOXQ1-shRNA-1 was the best lentiviral vector. ② Compared with the negative control group and the blank control group, the expressions of FOXQ1 mRNA and its protein of the interference group were both lower (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between the negative control group and the blank control group (P>0.05). ③ Whether added oxaliplatin or not, compared with the negative control group and the blank control group, the apoptosis rates of the interference group were higher (P<0.05), but the viability of the interference group was lower (P<0.05), and there was no significant difference between the negative control group and the blank control group under the same condition (P>0.05). The apoptosis rates of groups (including the interference group, the negative control group, and the blank control group) which added oxaliplatin were higher than those groups didn’t add oxaliplatin (P<0.05), but viability of groups (including the interference group, the negative control group, and the blank control group) which added oxaliplatin was lower than those groups didn’t add oxaliplatin (P<0.05). Conclusion Down-regulation of expression of FOXQ1 by shRNA in hepatocellular carcinoma cell line SMMC-7721 can effectively induce apoptosis and increase sensitivity of SMMC-7721 cells to oxaliplatin.
