Abstract: Objective: To study the effect of Fugui Guanshitong Granules on survival rates, T lymphocytes and tumor markers related to esophageal cancer in patients with advanced esophageal cancer of spleen-kidney yang deficiency and lingering phlegm and obstinate blood type in 42 days after treatment. Methods:A total of 120 cases of patients from nine centers were included and divided into the trial group 1,the trial group 2 and the control group according to the block randomization method,with 40 cases in each group. The trial group 1 was treated with Fugui Guanshitong Granules and Dingxiang Guanshitong Hanhua Pills;the trial group 2 was treated with Dingxiang Guanshitong Hanhua Pills;the control group was treated with Danggui Buxue Decoction and Guizhi Renshen Decoction Granules. All the groups were treated for 42 days. The survival rates,T lymphocytes (CD3 +,CD4 +,CD8 + ),carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), and squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCCA) in the three groups were compared after 42 days of treatment,and the safety was evaluated. Results:The survival rate was 88.6% in the trial group 1,86.8% in the trial group 2,and 72.2% in the control group,there was no significant difference among the three goups (P>0.05). After treatment, the differences of CD4 + , CD8 + , and CEA in the three groups were significant in time (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in the comparison among the three groups (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in CD3 + and SCCA among the three groups or the comparison of time (P>0.05). Conclusion: Fugui Guanshitong Granules for patients with advanced esophageal cancer can improve their survival rates and immune function.
