ABSTRACT
Objective:
To investigate the efficacy of Qingruxiao granules combined with tamoxifen in the treatment of breast hyperplasia and its effect on serum hypoxia-inducible factor-alpha (HIF-α), angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) and prolactin (PRL) levels.Methods:
Ninety-eight patients with breast hyperplasia admitted to Xi'an No.3 Hospital from June 2020 to January 2022 were retrospectively included in this study. They were divided into control and observation groups ( n = 49/group) according to different treatments. The control group was treated with tamoxifen alone. The observation group was treated with Qingruxiao granules combined with tamoxifen. Clinical efficacy, symptom score, ultrasound parameters (glandular layer thickness, longest diameter of mass, maximum diameter of hypoechoic area, inner diameter of lactating tube), endocrine hormone levels (estradiol, progesterone, and prolactin), HIF-α, and Ang-2 pre- and post-treatment, as well as the incidence of adverse reactions were compared between the two groups.Results:
Total response rate in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [93.88% (4/49) vs. 77.55%, χ2 = 5.33, P < 0.05). After treatment, breast mass score, breast pain, systemic accompanying symptom, and nipple discharge in the observation group were (1.34 ± 0.29) points, (1.02 ± 0.36) points, (0.68 ± 0.17) points, (0.97 ± 0.15) points, respectively, which were significantly lower than (1.57 ± 0.23) points, (1.45 ± 0.41) points, (0.95 ± 0.26) points, and (1.28 ± 0.26) points, respectively, in the control group ( t = 4.35, 5.52, 6.08, 7.23, all P < 0.001). The glandular layer thickness, the longest diameter of mass, the maximum diameter of hypoechoic area, and the inner diameter of lactating duct in the observation group were (9.45 ± 1.67) mm, (11.46 ± 3.68) mm, (14.37 ± 4.22) mm, and (1.23 ± 0.39) mm, respectively, which were significantly lower than (11.26 ± 2.51) mm, (16.33 ± 4.01) mm, (19.87 ± 5.01) mm, (1.54 ± 0.48) mm in the control group ( t = 4.20, 2.26, 5.88, 3.51, all P < 0.001). Serum estradiol and prolactin levels in the observation group were (122.35 ± 29.76) ng/L and (205.64 ± 36.42) IU/L, respectively, which were significantly lower than (139.76 ± 30.48) ng/L and (251.49 ± 41.87) IU/L in the control group ( t = 2.86, 5.78, both P < 0.05). Serum progesterone level in the observation group was (9.22 ± 1.57) μg/L, which was significantly higher than (7.18 ± 1.21) μg/L in the control group ( t = -7.20, P < 0.05). Serum HIF-α and Ang-2 levels in the observation group were (0.15 ± 0.05) ng/L and (0.98 ± 0.11) ng/L, respectively, which were significantly lower than (0.24 ± 0.07) ng/L and (1.49 ± 0.22) ng/L in the control group ( t = 7.32, 14.51, both P < 0.001). There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups ( P > 0.05).Conclusion:
Qingruxiao granules combined with tamoxifen can effectively improve clinical symptoms, reduce tumor size, regulate endocrine hormone levels, decrease the expression of angiogenic factors in patients with breast hyperplasia, and is highly safe.
