ResultsThe trial group's effective rate was 45.5% while the control group was 34.3%,
P>0.05. For three other results:the disease control rate symptomatic relief rate and QOL improvement rate,they were 90.9%, 81.8% and 63.6% in the trial group and 71.4%, 60.0% and 40.0% in the control group respectively,
P<0.05. Side effects were almostly grade 1/2 and concened with chemotherapy. 4 patients in the trial group suffered cardiopalmus and arrhythmias.
