From June 1999 to June 2006, 62 patients who had undergone radical surgery for colorectal cancer were treated with the traditional Chinese medicine formula Jianpi Xiaocai Yin in combination with chemotherapy, and their outcomes were compared with those of 60 patients receiving chemotherapy alone; the results were satisfactory. Dr. Pan maintains that postoperative colorectal cancer patients commonly present with spleen–stomach deficiency, qi and blood insufficiency, and residual stasis‑toxin. In light of this pathogenic pattern—characterized by concurrent deficiency, stasis, and toxin—Dr. Pan adopted a therapeutic strategy of tonifying the spleen and replenishing qi while resolving stasis and detoxifying, and formulated Jianpi Xiaocai Yin to be used alongside chemotherapy in the management of postoperative colorectal cancer patients.
