Abstract

A total of 18% of global breast cancer (BC) deaths are attributed to BC in China, making it one of the five most common cancers there. There has been a steady rise in BC morbidity and mortality in women in the last few years and it is now a leading cancer among Chinese women. Conventional treatments for BC are currently effective but have several limitations and disadvantages, and Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) plays a vital role in the overall process of cancer prevention and therapy. It is known that TCM can treat a variety of conditions at a variety of sites and targets. In recent years, increasingly, research has been conducted on TCM's ability to treat BC. TCM has shown positive results in the treatment of breast cancer and the adverse effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy. This review describes the progress of clinical observation and mechanism research of TCM in the treatment of breast cancer in recent years. It provides some ideas and theoretical basis for the treatment of BC with TCM.

全球共有18%的癌症死亡归因于中国的乳腺癌，使其成为中国五大最常见的癌症之一。在过去几年中，女性BC的发病率和死亡率稳步上升，目前已成为中国女性中的主要癌症。传统的BC治疗目前是有效的，但有一些局限性和缺点，中医药在癌症预防和治疗的整个过程中发挥着至关重要的作用。众所周知，中医药可以在各种部位和靶点治疗各种疾病。近年来，人们对中医治疗BC的能力进行了越来越多的研究。中医在治疗癌症和放疗、化疗的不良反应方面取得了积极成果。本文综述了近年来中医药治疗癌症的临床观察和机制研究进展。为中医治疗BC提供了一些思路和理论依据。
