Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of anlotinib combined with radiotherapy as a third-line treatment regimen for extensive stage small-cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) in a real-world background.Methods:Forty ES-SCLC patients enrolled in a single center of Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University in China between November 2018 and July 2021 were treated with radiotherapy added on anlotinib as a third-line treatment regimen. Overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), safety, and quality of life were analyzed, and the survival status was statistically analyzed using Kaplan-Meier method.Results:Among the 40 patients, partial remission, stable disease, and progressive disease was confirmed in 7, 24 and 9 patients, respectively. The obtained objective remission rate (ORR) was 18%, the disease control rate (DCR) was 78%, and median PFS and median OS were 4.5 months and 9 months, respectively. The most common adverse reactions included fatigue (28%), bleeding (20%), anorexia (13%), and hand-foot syndrome (8%). Most of them were grade 1-2 in severity, 4 cases were documented as ≥grade 3, and no grade 5 toxicity was recorded.Conclusions:In the real world, radiotherapy added on anlotinib as a third-line regimen can prolong PFS and OS of the ES-SCLC patients, and the adverse reactions are generally tolerated. This combination treatment regimen is worthy of further investigation.
