Abstract:

Objective To compare the efficacy of recombinant human interleukin-11 (rhIL-11) and herombopag olamine tablets on chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia (CIT) in breast cancer. Methods Eighty-six prospectively selected breast cancer patients with CIT were randomly divided into the control group (administered rhIL-11) and the study group (administered herombopag olamine tablets), with 43 cases in each group. Before treatment and 14 days after treatment, platelet parameters [platelet count (PLT), plateletcrit (PCT), platelet distribution width (PDW) and mean platelet volume (MPV)] and flow cytometry were measured by automated hematology analyzer. Cellular immune indicators (CD3+, CD4+, CD8+ and CD4+/CD8+) were detected by flow cytometer. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to determine the levels of thrombopoietin (TPO) and interleukin-11 (IL-11). The above parameters were compared between the two groups, and the incidence of adverse reactions in the two groups was recorded. Results After treatment, PLT, PCT, CD3+, CD4+, CD4+/CD8+, TPO and IL-11 in both groups were higher than before treatment, and which was higher in the study group than the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, PDW, MPV and CD8+ of both groups were lower than before treatment, and the study group was lower than the control group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the overall incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Both rhIL-11 and herombopag olamine tablets are effective in treating breast cancer with CIT. Compared with rhIL-11, herombopag olamine tablets have more advantages in improving platelet parameters, cellular immune indicators, TPO and IL-11, and do not increase the adverse reactions.
