Time perspective:
Retrospective
Summary:
This study aims to evaluate the survival and treatment outcomes among colorectal cancer
patients undergoing anti-cancer treatment, both with and without an immunomodulator.
Detailed description:
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer worldwide. The clinical outcomes
from CRC treatments are often unsatisfactory for the majority of patients. The tumor
microenvironment (TME) plays an important role to regulate tumor growth, progression, and
metastasis and can limit the efficacy of cancer therapies. Therefore, targeting TME could
provide an efficient approach for cancer treatment.
Astragalus Polysaccharide Injection, an immunomodulator, which can stimulate medullary
hematopoiesis and enhance immune function. It also can modulate TME. Astragalus
Polysaccharide Injection has been approved as a prescription drug for alleviating
cancer-related fatigue by the Taiwan Food and Drug Administration (TFDA).
In this retrospective study, we will collect clinical data and survival status of
colorectal cancer patients undergoing anti-cancer treatment from their medical records
with and without immunomodulator, Astragalus polysaccharide Injection. It can be used to
understand the possible clinical benefit of immunomodulator plus anti-cancer therapies
for patients with colorectal cancer, and physicians can refer to these results to give
patients the suitable treatment recommendations.
