Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of breast cancer treatment, and in particular relates to a traditional Chinese medicine composition for treating cancer-related fatigue in patients with malignant tumors. Background technique [0002] With the improvement of diagnosis technology and treatment level, the survival period of cancer is increasing year by year. At present, about 2 / 3 of cancer patients can survive for five years or more. Therefore, cancer is now mostly regarded as a disease. Chronic diseases are just like diabetes, hypertension and coronary heart disease. Now, more and more clinical research focuses and patients' attention is shifted to how to minimize treatment-related side effects and improve the quality of life of cancer patients. Cancer patients believe that fatigue is the most disturbing symptom related to cancer and cancer treatment, and it even affects the quality of life more than pain, nausea and vomiting. Because most c...

Problems solved by technology

(2) Stimulants: The most commonly used stimulants for cancer-related fatigue are methylphenidate and modafinil, but the level of evidence for the efficacy of these two drugs is low, and higher evidence is needed for further support. Methylphenidate Methylphenidate is an amphetamine-like central nervous system stimulant. It can take effect quickly after taking the drug, and the effect lasts for a long time. In a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial conducted by Bruera et al., it was found that methylphenidate can relieve Cancer-related fatigue, but placebo effects cannot be ruled out

The study by Morrow GR et al. found that although modafinil can improve the fatigue symptoms of patients after chemotherapy, this effect is limited to severe fatigue

At present, due to the limited number of studies on modafinil and the efficacy of modafinil in improving cancer-related fatigue is still to be determined, it is not recommended to use modafinil for the treatment of cancer-related fatigue

(3) Antidepressants: Fatigue and depression are closely related. Some randomized controlled trials use serotonin receptor blockers (paroxetine, etc.) Symptoms do not improve

(4) Hormones: Steroids can improve the quality of life of patients with terminal cancer and relieve fatigue symptoms. Yennurajalingam S et al. used dexamethasone to treat 84 patients with advanced cancer. The results showed that dexamethasone could relieve cancer-related fatigue. However, The side effects of this type of drugs are very large, and their routine use is limited. Therefore, the above data show that western medicine is relatively limited in alleviating cancer-related fatigue.
