Abstract

Objective To study the response and toxicity of the regimen of oxaliplatin combined with fluorouracil and calcium folinate in the treatment of advanced colorectal cancer.Methods:The regimen was oxaliplatin 130 mg/m 2 hours iv drip on the 1st day,calcium folinate 200 mg/m 2 iv drip 2 hours on days the 1st to 5 th ,followed by fluorouracil 300 mg/m 2(≤500 mg/d) iv drip 4 hours on the 1st to the 5 th ,and 21 days as one cycle.Results:The total response rate was 30%,the main toxicity was bone marrow suppression and neuro sensory toxicity.Leukopenia was observed in 45% of the patients,neuro sensory toxicity was observed in 80%.There was no toxicity and side effect of grade Ⅳ in these patients.Conclusions The regimen of oxaliplatin combined with fluorouracil and calcium folinate is effective and tolerable in advanced colorectal cancer therapy.
