Five electronic databases were searched for randomized controlled trials of 5-FU-based chemotherapy combined with TCMs compared to the same 5-FU-based regimen. Forty-five randomized controlled trials were involved in this study, and all the data were analyzed by Stata software (version 14.0). Our results suggested that the TRR of the group with TCMs combined with 5-FU-based regimens was higher than that in the group with 5-FU regimens alone (risk ratio [RR] 1.36 [1.25-1.49], I\n                    <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                    = 0%). Furthermore, both nonoral administration (RR 1.51 [1.29-1.76], I\n                    <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                    = 0%) and oral administration (RR 1.31 [1.18-1.45], I\n                    <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                    = 0%) of TCMs showed benefits to the CRC treatment. Further sensitivity analysis of specific plant-based TCMs found that fuling, sheshecao, banzhilian, eshu, baizhu, huangqi, yiyiren, and dangshen had significantly higher contributions to the results of the risk ratio. Therefore, TCMs may have the potential to improve the efficacy of 5-FU-based chemotherapy for CRC.\n
