S-1, an oral fluoropyrimidine, is one of the standard chemotherapeutic agents for the treatment of metastatic gastric cancer(MGC). However, the most effective second-line regimen after failure of treatment with first-line agents such as S-1 is yet to be determined. The aim of this study was to investigate the various second-line chemotherapy regimens in MGC patients.
We retrospectively studied patients with MGC who received second-line treatment after failure of the first-line S-1 or S-1/cisplatin treatment. The overall survival times with each second-line regimen were determined using the Kaplan-Meier method, and the effect on overall survival was analyzed using Cox regression analysis.
The median survival time for all patients was 14. 2 months(95% confidence interval(CI): 12. 88-15. 43 months)with a 1-year survival rate of 60. 4%. Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that the second-line regimens containing irinotecan significantly improved the median survival time as compared to regimens without irinotecan(median survival time: 16. 5 and 13. 8 months, respectively). Cox regression analysis showed that irinotecan-containing regimens were associated with improved overall survival(hazard ratio: 0. 165; 95% CI: 0. 041-0. 665).
The use of irinotecan-containing regimens as second-line chemotherapy after failure of first-line S-1 therapy may be beneficial for MGC patients.
S-1是一种口服氟嘧啶,是治疗转移性胃癌(MGC)的标准化疗药物之一。然而,一线药物如S-1治疗失败后最有效的二线治疗方案尚未确定。本研究的目的是调查MGC患者的各种二线化疗方案。
我们回顾性研究了一线S-1或S-1/顺铂治疗失败后接受二线治疗的MGC患者。采用Kaplan-Meier方法确定每种二线治疗方案的总生存时间,并使用Cox回归分析分析对总生存的影响。
所有患者的中位生存时间为14.2个月(95%置信区间(CI):12.88-15.43个月),1年生存率为60.4%。Kaplan-Meier分析显示,与不含伊立替康的方案相比,含伊立替康的二线方案显著提高了中位生存时间(中位生存时间分别为16.5个月和13.8个月)。Cox回归分析表明,含伊立替康的方案与总生存改善相关(风险比:0.165;95%CI:0.041-0.665)。
一线S-1治疗失败后使用含伊立替康的方案作为二线化疗可能对MGC患者有益。
