A Comparison of Chemotherapy Used with and without Apatinib for Patients with Ovarian Carcinoma Who Progressed after Standard Regimens: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Objective. This meta-analysis was conducted to compare the therapeutic efficacy and clinical safety of the combination therapy of apatinib plus chemotherapy with that of chemotherapy alone in patients with refractory or recurrent ovarian carcinoma (OC). Methods. Relevant randomized controlled trials...

This meta-analysis was conducted to compare the therapeutic efficacy and clinical safety of the combination therapy of apatinib plus chemotherapy with that of chemotherapy alone in patients with refractory or recurrent ovarian carcinoma (OC). Methods. Relevant randomized controlled trials (RCT) or case-control studies (CCS) were identified by searching Chinese and English databases up to October 31, 2020. The risk of methodological bias tool and Newcastle–Ottawa scale (NOS) were used to assess trial quality. Pooled odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated to evaluate the therapeutic effects and adverse drug reactions. Subgroup analyses of study type, study sample size, dosage of apatinib, and chemotherapy regimen between treatment group and control group were performed. Publication bias was assessed by funnel plot symmetry, Begg–Mazumdar test, and Egger test. The robustness of our results was presented by removing the trial one by one. Results. Fifteen eligible studies covering 1,020 patients were included in this review and meta-analysis. Among these studies, 8 were RCTs, and 7 were CCSs. Compared with chemotherapy alone, apatinib plus chemotherapy significantly increased objective response rate (OR = 3.55; 95% CI 2.31 to 5.47), disease control rate (OR = 3.04; 95% CI 2.12 to 4.36), and overall survival (OR = 5.03; 95% CI 3.16 to 6.90). Conclusions. The combination treatment of apatinib plus chemotherapy provides better clinical benefits for OC patients when compared to chemotherapy alone and should be recommended for suitable patients with OC after the failure of standard regimens. However, further investigation into future large-scale prospective randomized research is still needed.Chao HouZhuang-Zhuang JiangBo PanXiao-Chun ZhangYan-Qing LiuHindawi LimitedarticleOther systems of medicineRZ201-999ENEvidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Vol 2021 (2021) |
