Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) with oxaliplatin (OXA), fluorouracil (5-Fu) and pirarubicin (THP) scheme in treating primary liver cancer. Methods A total of 65 patients with primary liver cancer were treated with TACE using infusion of OXA/5-Fu/THP scheme (TACE group). Other 21 patients with primary liver cancer, who were encountered at the Department of Interventional Radiology of authors’ hospital during the same period as the patients of TACE group, received simple transarterial embolization (TAE group). The therapeutic effect, the occurrence of adverse reactions, the progression-free survival time (PFS) and overall survival time (OS) of the two groups were comprehensively evaluated. The results were compared between the two groups. Results In the TACE group, the objective response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR) were 55.4%and 81.5%respectively, and the median PFS and median OS were 11.5 months and 18.5 months respectively. Single factor analysis indicated that patients, who had liver function of Child-Pugh A and received more times or treatment, and who had small-sized tumor and no portal vein tumor thrombus or metastasis, usually had a better prognosis, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The prognosis of the patients with Barcelona staging (BCLC) B was better than that of the patients with Barcelona staging C, and the difference was statistically significant (P=0.000). Cox multivariate analysis revealed that the portal vein tumor thrombus and tumor metastasis were independent risk factors for the prognosis of the patients. Compared with the TAE group, TACE with OXA/5-Fu/THP scheme could effectively improve the mean progression-free survival time. Conclusion For the treatment of primary liver cancer, TACE with infusion of OXA/5-Fu/THP is clinically effective with fewer adverse reactions.
