RESUMEN

Background: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive malignancy. Psychological distress and elevated CXCL1 level have been reported to be closely associated with the poor prognosis and quality of life of patients with TNBC. In preclinical studies using xenograft mouse models, XIAOPI formula, a nationally approved drug prescribed to patients at high risk for breast cancer, inhibited CXCL1 expression and improved survival. Traditional Chinese medicine has unique advantages in improving patients' emotional disorders and quality of life. However, the impact of XIAOPI formula on the serum level of CXCL1, psychological distress, and quality of life among patients with TNBC is currently unknown. Methods: In this study, we designed a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Patients with TNBC were randomly assigned to receive either the XIAOPI formula or a placebo for three months. The primary outcomes include serum CXCL1 expression, Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), and the Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS). Secondary outcomes included the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Breast (FACT-B). Results: A total of 60 patients with TNBC were enrolled in the investigation. The results showed that the XIAOPI formula significantly decreased CXCL1 expression compared with the control group. Moreover, in comparison to the placebo, the XIAOPI formula increased FACT-B scores while decreasing SDS, SAS, and PSQI scores. Conclusion: In patients with TNBC, XIAOPI formula may be effective in reducing CXCL1 levels, enhancing psychological well-being, and quality of life. While our research offers a natural alternative therapy that may enhance the prognosis of TNBC, future validation of its therapeutic effects will require large-scale, long-term clinical trials.
