摘要:
目的 探索XELOX方案联合贝伐珠单抗一线诱导治疗晚期结直肠癌序贯卡培他滨联合贝伐珠单抗或卡培他滨单药维持治疗的疗效与安全性。 方法 100例晚期结直肠癌患者,一线予以XELOX方案(奥沙利铂和卡培他滨)联合贝伐珠单抗诱导治疗6周期,疗效评价为完全缓解、部分缓解或疾病稳定,按1∶1分成卡培他滨联合贝伐珠单抗组(n = 50例)和卡培他滨单药组(n = 50例)维持治疗至首次疾病进展或毒副反应不可耐受。主要研究终点为维持治疗至疾病进展时间(PFS1),次要研究终点为诱导治疗开始至疾病进展时间(PFS2)、总生存时间(OS)和毒副反应。 结果 100例晚期结直肠癌患者进行维持治疗,2组基线临床病理学特征均衡,卡培他滨联合贝伐珠单抗维持治疗的中位PFS1、中位PFS2及中位OS均较卡培他滨单药组显著延长,分别为9.0(95%CI:8.52~9.47)比7.2(6.16~8.24,P < 0.0001)个月、13.5(12.55~14.45)比12.3(11.21~13.38,P < 0.0001)个月和27.0(25.31~28.69)比26.2(24.09~28.31,P = 0.011)个月。亚组分析显示,联合维持治疗显著延长同时性转移、RAS/BRAF突变亚组的PFS1及男性、肝转移亚组的OS。2组化疗相关毒副反应相似,最常见为中性粒细胞下降、粘膜炎、手足综合征和腹泻。联合组高血压(20% 比4%)及蛋白尿(14% 比 2%)的发生率明显高于单药组。 结论 卡培他滨联合贝伐珠单抗及卡培他滨单药均可作为安全有效的晚期结直肠癌一线经XELOX方案联合贝伐珠单抗诱导治疗获得疾病控制后维持治疗的选择。卡培他滨联合贝伐珠单抗维持治疗有更好的生存获益。 Abstract:Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of capecitabine combined with bevacizumab or single agent of capecitabine as the maintenance therapy following the induction of XELOX regimen combined with bevacizumab in the first-line treatment of advanced colorectal cancer. Methods A total of 100 patients with the advanced colorectal cancer were treated with XELOX regimen (oxaliplatin plus capecitabine) combined with bevacizumab as first-line induction therapy for 6 cycles, whose efficacy were evaluated as the complete response, partial response or stable disease. These patients were divided in a 1∶1 ratio into the capecitabine combined with bevacizumab group (n = 50) and the single agent of capecitabine group (n = 50) for the maintenance therapy until the first disease progression or intolerable adverse events. The primary end point was progression-free survival from the initiation of maintenance therapy to the disease progression (PFS1). Secondary endpoints were progression-free survival from the initiation of induction therapy to the disease progression (PFS2), overall survival (OS) and adverse events. Results One-hundred patients were treated with capecitabine plus bevacizumab (n = 50) or single agent of capecitabine (n = 50) as the maintenance therapy. The median PFS1, median PFS2, and median OS of combination group were significantly longer than those of the monotherapy group, which were 9.0 (95% confidence interval (CI) 8.52-9.47) versus 7.2 (6.16-8.24, P < 0.0001) months, 13.5 (12.55-14.45) versus 12.3 (11.21-13.38, P < 0.0001) months and 27.0 (25.31-28.69) versus 26.2 (24.09-28.31, P = 0.011) months, respectively. Subgroup analysis showed that PFS1 of the combination group was significantly prolonged in the simultaneous metastasis and RAS/BRAF mutant subgroups. OS of the combination group was significantly prolonged in the male and liver metastatic subgroups. Similar treatment-related adverse events were observed in both groups. The most common toxicities both were neutropenia, mucositis, hand-foot syndrome and diarrhea. The incidence of hypertension (20% versus 4%) and proteinuria (14% versus 2%) were higher in the combination group than that in the monotherapy group. Conclusion Both capecitabine combined with the bevacizumab and the single agent of capecitabine can be considered as the appropriate options following the induction of XELOX regimen combined with bevacizumab as the first line treatment for advanced colorectal cancer with good efficacy and acceptable toxicities. Capecitabine combined with bevacizumab as maintenance therapy has a better survival benefit than single agent of capecitabine. -
