摘要:
目的 分析卡瑞利珠单抗联合阿帕替尼在晚期肝癌(HCC)一线治疗中的疗效及对患者生活质量的影响。 方法 收集2020年1月—2022年6月在蚌埠医学院第一附属医院接受卡瑞利珠单抗联合阿帕替尼(31例)和阿帕替尼单药(23例)一线治疗晚期HCC患者的临床资料和患者报告结局(EORTC QLQ-C30和HCC18)。分析2组治疗疗效以及对患者生活质量的影响。 结果 联合组较单药组客观缓解率(22.58% vs. 8.69%,χ2=0.969,P=0.325)和疾病控制率(70.97% vs. 56.52%,χ2=1.208,P=0.271)提高,但差异无统计学意义。联合组中位无疾病进展生存时间(mPFS)较单药组(5.60个月vs. 3.50个月, P=0.002)延长。基线2组C30和HCC18各维度得分相似。4周期后联合组C30情绪(t=2.093,P=0.041)和认知功能(U=193.000,P=0.003)评分高于单药组,恶心呕吐(U=252.500, P=0.039)和食欲丧失(U=244.000, P=0.031)较单药组轻。HCC18躯体改变(U=250.000, P=0.044)和发热(U=237.500, P=0.026)较单药组轻。 结论 卡瑞利珠单抗联合阿帕替尼一线治疗晚期HCC患者,提高疗效的同时可改善患者健康相关生活质量。 Abstract:Objective To evaluate the efficacy of combination therapy with camrelizumab and apatinib as a first-line treatment for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and its impact on patients ' quality of life. Methods The advanced HCC patients who received the first-line treatment of apatinib combined with (31 cases) or without (23 cases) camrelizumab were selected in the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical College from January 2020 to June 2022, the clinical data and patient-reported outcome (PRO) scales (EORTC QLQ-C30 and HCC18) were collected. Objective efficacy and the effect on HRQoL were evaluated. Results The combination group was higher in the objective response rate (22.58% vs. 8.69%, χ2=0.969, P=0.325) and disease control rate (70.97% vs. 56.52%, χ2=1.208, P=0.271) compared with the single drug group, however, the difference was not statistically significant. The mPFS in the combination group was prolonged compared to the single drug group (5.60 months vs. 3.50 months, P=0.002). Both groups had similar C30 and HCC18 scores at baseline. After 4 cycles of treatment, C30 emotional (t=2.093, P=0.041) and cognitive function (U=193.000, P=0.003) scores in combination group were higher than those in single drug group. Nausea and vomiting (U=252.500, P=0.039) and loss of appetite (U=244.000, P=0.031) were less severe than single drug group. Body change (U=250.000, P=0.044) and fever (U=237.500, P=0.026) in HCC18 were less severe than those in single drug group. Conclusion Camrelizumab in combination with apatinib for the first-line treatment of advanced HCC patients can improve the efficacy and health-related quality of life of patients. -
