To compare outcomes for patients with colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRCLM) treated by drug-eluting bead chemoembolization (DEB-TACE) or radioembolization (TARE).
A single-center retrospective review was carried out on 202 patients with CRCLM, treated by DEB-TACE (n=47) or TARE (n=155) patients. Propensity-matching yielded 44 pairs. Paired statistical analysis was performed on matched pair demographics, treatment response, and survival.
Patients treated with DEB-TACE had worse extra-hepatic metastasis (68.1 vs. 47.7%, p=0.014) and ≥10 liver lesions (42.2 vs. 68.8%, p=0.001). Matched patients treated with DEB-TACE had a trend towards worse toxicity (27% vs. 9.1% (p=0.057). Index DEB-TACE treatment was not a prognostic factor for overall survival (hazard ratio=0.94, 95% confidence intervaI=0.54-1.65; p=0.83).
In the matched CRCLM cohort, there was a trend towards worse toxicity post-DEB-TACE treatment, but it was not an independent prognostic factor for survival.
比较接受药物洗脱微球化疗栓塞术(DEB-TACE)或放射性栓塞术(TARE)治疗的结直肠癌肝转移(CRCLM)患者的治疗结果。
对202例接受DEB-TACE(n = 47)或TARE(n = 155)治疗的CRCLM患者进行单中心回顾性研究。倾向评分匹配产生44对。对匹配对的人口统计学、治疗反应和生存情况进行配对统计分析。
接受DEB-TACE治疗的患者肝外转移情况更差(68.1%对47.7%,p = 0.014),且肝脏病灶≥10个的比例更高(42.2%对68.8%,p = 0.001)。接受DEB-TACE治疗的匹配患者毒性有加重趋势(27%对9.1%,p = 0.057)。首次DEB-TACE治疗并非总生存的预后因素(风险比=0.94,95%置信区间=0.54 - 1.65;p = 0.83)。
在匹配的CRCLM队列中,DEB-TACE治疗后毒性有加重趋势,但并非生存的独立预后因素。
