Objective: To study the relationship between serum cfDNA and the efficacy of chemotherapy for HER2-negative gastric cancer. Methods: 60 cases of stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ HER2-negative gastric cancer patients treated solely with chemotherapy in Xuzhou Medical University Affiliated Hospital of Lianyungang between January 2018 and May 2019 were enrolled in our study. The chemotherapy regimen was oxaliplatin combined with tegafur(oxaliplatin 130 mg·m-2 intravenous infusion D1, tegafur 40 mg·m-2 oral, 2 times·d-1, D1-14, repeated every 21 days). The treatment efficacy was assessed after every two cycles of chemotherapy according to the efficacy evaluation criteria for solid tumors(RECIST version 1.1) until disease progression or decease. In addition, 60 patients with normal physical examination results in our hospital during the same period were selected as the control group. The correlation between serum cfDNA and chemotherapy efficacy, tissue differentiation, lymph node metastasis, TNM stage and distant metastasis were analyzed. Results: Serum cfDNA levels in patients with gastric cancer were significantly higher than those of the control group(P<0.05); the differences in serum cfDNA levels among patients of different gender and age groups were not statistically significant(P>0.05). The degree of tissue differentiation, the presence of lymph node metastasis, TNM staging, and whether the difference in serum cfDNA of patients with distant metastasis were statistically significant(P<0.05); the serum cfDNA levels of objectively effective patients were significantly lower than those of objectively ineffective patients(P<0.05). Conclusion: Serum cfDNA level can be used to conveniently and noninvasively predict the efficacy and prognosis of chemotherapy in patients with HER2-negative gastric cancer. |
