To compare the effectiveness of TACE + RFA with hepatectomy in patients with HCC within Milan criteria.
It is a retrospective matched case-control study from January 2006 to December 2010 in a tertiary cancer center. 74 patients with HCC within Milan criteria initially treated with TACE + RFA were identified and compared with 148 matched controls selected from a pool of 782 patients who received hepatectomy. Patients were matched with respect to age, gender, tumor size and number, AFP and liver function test.
The 1, 3, and 5 years overall survival (OS) was 94.6, 75.1 and 55.3%, respectively, in the combination group, and 91.2, 64.4, and 47.7%, respectively, in the hepatectomy group (P = 0.488). The 1, 3, and 5 years disease-free survival (DFS) in the combination group was 87.8, 48.3, and 33.5%, respectively, and 68.9, 49.2, and 40.9%, respectively, in the hepatectomy group (P = 0.619). In subgroups analyses according to the tumor size and number, no significant difference was identified in either OS or DFS for patients with single tumor smaller than 3.0 cm, 3.0-5.0 cm, and multiple tumors. Multivariate analysis showed that tumor size, ALT, and CLIP score were significant prognostic factors for OS, and ALT and Child-Pugh class were significant prognostic factors for DFS.
TACE + RFA is safe and as effective as hepatectomy for patients with HCC within Milan criteria.
比较经动脉化疗栓塞术(TACE)联合射频消融术(RFA)与肝切除术治疗符合米兰标准的肝癌患者的疗效。
这是一项在某三级癌症中心进行的回顾性配对病例对照研究,研究时间为2006年1月至2010年12月。确定了74例最初接受TACE + RFA治疗且符合米兰标准的肝癌患者,并与从782例行肝切除术的患者中选出的148例配对对照进行比较。患者在年龄、性别、肿瘤大小和数量、甲胎蛋白(AFP)及肝功能检查方面进行了配对。
联合治疗组1年、3年和5年总生存率(OS)分别为94.6%、75.1%和55.3%,肝切除组分别为91.2%、64.4%和47.7%(P = 0.488)。联合治疗组1年、3年和5年无病生存率(DFS)分别为87.8%、48.3%和33.5%,肝切除组分别为68.9%、49.2%和40.9%(P = 0.619)。在根据肿瘤大小和数量进行的亚组分析中,对于单个肿瘤小于3.0 cm、3.0 - 5.0 cm以及多个肿瘤的患者,OS和DFS均未发现显著差异。多因素分析显示,肿瘤大小、丙氨酸氨基转移酶(ALT)和癌症分期评分(CLIP)是OS的显著预后因素,ALT和Child-Pugh分级是DFS的显著预后因素。
对于符合米兰标准的肝癌患者,TACE + RFA安全且与肝切除术疗效相当。
