Abstract:
Objective To explore the clinical efficacy and adverse reactions of transarterial chemoembolization(TACE)combined with sorafenib for the treatment of liver carcinoma.Methods Forty-eight cases of intermediate-advanced liver carcinoma patients were divided into TACE combined with sorafenib group(test group)and TACE only group(control group)according to the wishes of the patient,with 24 patients in each group.The median Survival Time(mOS),clinical efficacy,quality of life,liver function indexes and adverse reactions were compared in two groups.Results Until the deadline of follow-up time,the mOS in test group(15.9 months)was significantly higher than that in control group(9.3 months).The difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The ORR,CBR in test group(58.3%,87.5%)were significantly higher than those in control group(33.3%, 54.2%).The difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The quality of life improvement rate in test group(79.2%)was significantly higher than that in control group(37.5%).The differences were statistically significant (P<0.05 ).The ALB,TBIL increased significantly after treatment than before treatment in both groups.The differences were statistically significant(P<0.05 ).Conclusion TACE combined with sorafenib is more efficiency than TACE only treatment,and it could effectively extend the period of life to guarantee the quality of life.What's more,it has well tolerated adverse reactions,which is worthy of promoting.
