Traditional Chinese medicine（TCM） has been an important research direction for anti-tumor medicinals

because of its advantages in tumor therapies such as multi-directional

multi-target regulation and it is less likely to develop resistance. There are a variety of anti-tumor heat-clearing medicinals

including clearing heat-fire medicinals

clearing heat and drying dampness medicinals

clearing heat and removing toxicity medicinals

clearing heat and cooling blood medicinals and clearing asthenic fever medicinals

involving five sorts and 27 herbs. Based on channel tropism theory

it is proposed that under the premise of syndrome differentiation and treatment

after establishing the treatment of clearing heat and detoxification

referring to the classification of tumor organs

the clearing heat medicine should be selected upon the related viscera; selecting the medicine to treat cancer pain according to the channel of the painful location; combining the anatomical location

fever characteristics

concurrent syndromes

the key to the channel tropism is determined

drugs are selected to treat cancerous fever; the channel drugs can directly reach a specific site

and treat adverse reactions caused by radiotherapy and chemotherapy.
