Docetaxel HIPEC Combined with Endostar versus Docetaxel HIPEC Alone in Treatment of Malignant Ascites:A Retrospective Study
Abstract Objective:The purpose of this study is to retrospectively observe the clinical efficacy and adverse reactions of docetaxel hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) combined with endostar in treatment of malignant ascites. Methods:56 cases of malignant ascites admitted to Zhejiang Hospital from July 2019 and October 2020 had received no less than second-line chemotherapy. The observation group (n = 29) was treated with endostar 60mg d1,4,7 Q3W intraperitoneal injection combined with docetaxel 60mg/m2 d4 HIPEC Q3W for 2 cycles. The control group (n = 27) was just treated with docetaxel 60mg/m2 d1 HIPEC Q3W for 2 cycles. The general clinical data and qualitative data of the treatment results were processed by SPSS26.0 using χ2 test, and quantitative data were processed by t test. When P < 0.05, statistical data can be considered statistically significant.Results:There were significant differences between the observation group and the control group in objective response rate (ORR) (65.5% vs 37.0%,P=0.033),in the improvement rate of KPS (48.3% vs 22.2%, P=0.042),also in the median control time (57dvs 45d,P=0.027). The incidence of III to IV adverse reactions was low, and no treatment-related death was observed. There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups.Conclusion:Endostar combined with docetaxel HIPEC has good clinical effect on malignant ascites and can improve patients’ quality of life, and the adverse reactions can be tolerated.
