Botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) is a potential treatment for cancer pain. This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness and safety of BTX-A in the treatment of pain after cancer treatment.
Systematic searches of PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Embase databases were conducted. Randomized controlled trials evaluating the efficacy and safety of BTX-A compared with either placebo or active treatment in patients with pain after cancer treatment were included. The outcomes included pain intensity, quality of life, and adverse events.
This systematic review included four studies of which two were included in the meta-analysis. Compared with a placebo, BTX-A injection in patients with pain after cancer treatment had a clinically meaningful reduction in self-reported pain post-treatment [mean difference=-1.79 (95% CI: -2.14--1.43), P <0.00001, I ²=0%].
This systematic review and meta-analysis demonstrated that BTX-A is safe and effective for pain relief in patients with pain after cancer treatment.
肉毒杆菌毒素 A(BTX-A)是治疗癌症疼痛的一种潜在方法。本研究旨在分析 BTX-A 在治疗癌症治疗后疼痛方面的疗效和安全性。
对 PubMed、Cochrane 图书馆和 Embase 数据库进行了系统检索。纳入了评估 BTX-A 与安慰剂或活性治疗相比在癌症治疗后疼痛患者中的疗效和安全性的随机对照试验。结果包括疼痛强度、生活质量和不良事件。
本系统评价纳入了四项研究,其中两项研究纳入了荟萃分析。与安慰剂相比,BTX-A 注射治疗癌症治疗后疼痛的患者在治疗后自我报告的疼痛有明显减轻[平均差值=-1.79(95%置信区间:-2.14--1.43),P<0.00001,I²=0%]。
本系统评价和荟萃分析表明,BTX-A 对癌症治疗后疼痛患者的疼痛缓解是安全有效的。
