摘要
通过比较中、西医治疗肿瘤的不同特点 ,认为西药治疗可以在较短时期内使瘤体迅速缩小或消退 ,近期有效率较高 ,但并不能使之完全消灭 ,仅能达到的也就是临床上的完全缓解而不是彻底清除癌细胞 ,故而复发和转移最终仍然难以避免。近年来兴起的基因治疗由于在体内易失活、治疗靶向性差及转染的致瘤性等问题尚未完全解决仍停留在实验阶段而未试用之临床。中医治疗以临床症状改善、生活质量提高及生存期延长的整体调控为特点 ,虽然近期有效率低 ,远期稳定率却高。但由于对相关证型标准及疗效的评价仍欠客观、规范 ,故而疗效容易受到怀疑 ;而作用机理的探讨也不够深入 ,从而影响了与国际的接轨。因此 ,开展相关方面的研究对于揭示中医药治疗肿瘤的奥秘将会产生积极作用。
The different characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine in treating carcinoma are compared. The following conclusion is drawn. Western medicine can reduce or eliminate carcinoma in a short time. Its early effective rate is high. But it can not get rid of carcinoma cells thoroughly. Patients can be only completely relieved in clinic. So recurrence and metastasis are inevitable. In recent years,gene therapy is quite popular. But it has the following issues that have not been resolved. It is easy to be inactivated. It has bad targeting and possible carcinogenicity caused by transfection. So it is still researched in lab. Therapy of traditional Chinese medicine has the characteristics of relieving clinical symptoms,improving life quality and prolonging survival period. Its early effective rate is low,but its late result is high. Since the evaluation of related syndromes’ criteria and therapeutic effect are not very objective and standard,its therapeutic effect is suspicious. Its action mechanism needs further investigation. These affect our intemational cooperation. Therefore,it is very important to develop related research on revealing the secrets of traditional Chinese medicine in treating carcinoma.
