Abstract
The study includes the breast cancer female patients who had received chemotherapy
(CMF, tamoxifen) and the newly diagnosed breast cancer patients, who had not
received any chemotherapy. The patients who had received six cycles of CMF had
shown low RBC, WBC and platelet count, elevated levels of SGPT, alkaline
phosphatase and lactatedehydrogenase as compared to newly diagnosed
breast cancer patients. The RBC count is increased in patients who had received CMF
and tamoxifen as compared to the patients received only CMF, the alkaline
phosphatase level is also declined in patients who had received CMF and tamoxifen as
compared to the patients received CMF only.
