Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of different chemotherapy combination regimens for first-line treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). METHODS PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase and Web of Science were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled clinical trial (RCT) on first-line treatment for mCRC from January 1, 2000 to February 16, 2025. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. Network meta-analysis was performed by using R4.4.3 and Stata 17.0 software. RESULTS A total of 28 RCTs, involving 16 intervention measures, were included. In terms of prolonging progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS), FOLFOX (5-fluorouracil+oxaliplatin+calcium folinate regimen)+cetuximab had the highest probability of ranking first. In terms of improving objective response rate (ORR), FOLFOXIRI (5-fluorouracil+oxaliplatin+irinotecan+calcium folinate regimen)+ bevacizumab and FOLFOX+bevacizumab+nivolumab had the highest probability of ranking first; in terms of the incidence of grade 3 or higher adverse reactions, FOLFOXIRI+panitumumab had the highest probability of ranking first; in subgroup analysis of KRAS wild-type patients, FOLFIRI (5-fluorouracil+irinotecan+calcium folinate regimen)+panitumumab and FOLFIRI+bevacizumab had the highest probability of ranking first in terms of prolonging PFS and OS, respectively; in terms of ORR, FOLFOXIRI+ cetuximab had the highest probability of ranking first. CONCLUSIONS In first-line treatment for mCRC, FOLFOX combined with targeted therapy has advantages in terms of efficacy and safety. However, individualized treatment strategies should be formulated based on the KRAS gene status and tumor location of patients.
