We aimed to evaluate whether carboplatin has a comparable efficacy with cisplatin as part of weekly concurrent chemoradiotherapy for cervical cancer (Car-RT vs. Cis-RT).
A literature search was conducted and both prospective and retrospective studies that evaluated the efficacy of Car-RT for cervical cancer were included. The primary endpoints were complete response (CR) rate, progression-free survival (PFS)/disease-free survival (DFS), overall survival (OS), reported as odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). The estimated CR rate and survival of patients treated with Car-RT were pooled. Acute toxicity was also summarized.
Twelve studies consisting of 1698 patients were eligible for meta-analysis. A lower CR rate (OR, 0.53; 95% CI, 0.34-0.82, I = 0%) and a trend toward poorer 3-year PFS/DFS (OR, 0.71; 95% CI, 0.49-1.02, I = 0%) and 3-year OS (OR, 0.70; 95% CI, 0.46-1.05, I = 36%) were found in Car-RT compared with Cis-RT. For the Car-RT groups, the pooled overall CR rate was 81% (95% CI 0.74-0.89). The pooled 3-year PFS/DFS rate was 64% (95% CI 0.52-0.78). The pooled 3-year OS rate was 73% (95% CI 0.62-0.87). Acute toxic events ≥ grade 3 were infrequent in the Car-RT groups.
Car-RT showed a poorer tumor response and a trend toward inferior survival compared with Cis-RT in the treatment of cervical cancer. However, this evidence was limited by the imbalance among studies. Due to the encouraging efficacy and low toxicity, carboplatin is a suitable concurrent agent for patients with contraindications to cisplatin.
我们旨在评估卡铂作为宫颈癌每周同期放化疗的一部分(卡铂同期放化疗(Car-RT)与顺铂同期放化疗(Cis-RT))是否具有与顺铂相当的疗效。
进行了文献检索,纳入了评估 Car-RT 治疗宫颈癌疗效的前瞻性和回顾性研究。主要终点为完全缓解(CR)率、无进展生存(PFS)/无病生存(DFS)、总生存(OS),报告为比值比(OR)和 95%置信区间(CI)。汇总了接受 Car-RT 治疗的患者的估计 CR 率和生存情况。还总结了急性毒性。
共有 12 项研究(共 1698 例患者)符合纳入标准。Car-RT 组的 CR 率较低(OR,0.53;95%CI,0.34-0.82,I = 0%),3 年 PFS/DFS(OR,0.71;95%CI,0.49-1.02,I = 0%)和 3 年 OS(OR,0.70;95%CI,0.46-1.05,I = 36%)的趋势较差。Car-RT 组的总体完全缓解率为 81%(95%CI 0.74-0.89)。3 年 PFS/DFS 率为 64%(95%CI 0.52-0.78)。3 年 OS 率为 73%(95%CI 0.62-0.87)。Car-RT 组急性毒性事件≥3 级者不常见。
与 Cis-RT 相比,Car-RT 治疗宫颈癌的肿瘤反应较差,生存趋势较差。然而,由于研究之间存在不平衡,这一证据受到限制。由于疗效令人鼓舞且毒性较低,卡铂是顺铂禁忌证患者的合适同期药物。
