Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of camrelizumab combined with sorafenib in the treatment of advanced liver cancer. METHODS Sixty patients with advanced liver cancer who were treated in our hospital from March 2020 to November 2021 were selected as the study subjects， and then were randomly divided into study group and control group， with 30 cases in each group. The control group was treated with Sorafenib tosylate tablets orally （0.4 g，bid）， and the study group was additionally given Camrelizumab for injection intravenously （200 mg， every 3 weeks） based on the control group； for all patients， the treatment was stopped until disease progression or intolerable side effects occurred. The clinical efficacy， progression-free survival （PFS）， total survival （OS） and 1-year survival rate of the two groups were compared， and the incidence of adverse reactions in two groups， and immune-related adverse reactions in the study group during treatment were recorded. RESULTS The objective remission rate of the study group was significantly higher than the control group （36.7% vs. 13.3%， P＜0.05）， and the median OS and median PFS were significantly longer than the control group （OS： 12.6 months vs. 7.9 months； PFS： 8.2 months vs. 5.3 months， P＜0.05）. There was no significant difference in the 1-year survival rate and the incidence of elevated aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase， rash or pruritus， anorexia， diarrhea， fatigue and hypertension between the two groups （P＞0.05）. The adverse events immune-related in the study group mainly included 21 cases of reactive capillary hyperplasia （70.0%）， 6 cases of hypothyroidism （20.0%）， and 1 case of immune-associated pneumonia （3.3%）， which were improved or tolerable after symptomatic treatment. CONCLUSIONS Camrelizumab combined with sorafenib in the treatment of advanced liver cancer can effectively control and delay the disease progression， prolong the survival period of patients， and the adverse reactions can be tolerated.
