摘要
中医在中国及全球华人社区拥有悠久的历史。中药作为传统中医使用广泛的方面之一,被广泛应用来治疗各种疾病,包括癌症。本文综述了近年来中药在癌症防治中的应用,包括单味药、复方制剂以及与西医结合治疗的研究进展。本文的文献检索覆盖了过去 10 年的科学研究资料,包括人体研究、动物实验、体外实验及相关的活性成分。结果显示,最常用并有科学证据支持 10 种单味中药在癌症治疗中的应用,例如黄芪、白花蛇舌草、当归、人参、三七、丹参、半枝莲等。此外,在癌症患者中已有研究并报道的常用复方中成药包括养正消积胶囊、黄芪汤、槐耳颗粒、复方斑蝥胶囊、金龙胶囊等。综上所述,中药无论是以单味药形式、复方制剂还是与西医结合治疗,在癌症防治中展现出潜力,不仅可减轻现代治疗带来的副作用,还可增强免疫功能,改善癌症患者的生活质量。
