Abstract:
Objective To assess the effectiveness and safety of hyperthermia combined with chemotherapy(HCT)compared with chemotherapy (CT)for ovarian cancer. Methods Related literatures were searched by two independent investigators from the following electronic databases:PubMed,Cochrane Library,EMbase,VIP,WanFang Data,CNKI and CBM.Then the meta?analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3 software. Results A total of 10 RCTs involving 546 patients were included. The results of Meta?analysis showed that the HCT group was superior to the CT group in the effective rate,tumor control rate,effective rate of CA125,ascites control rate and PD,with significant differences(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the improvement rate of life quality and the incidences of myelosuppression,severe myelosuppression,severe nausea and vomiting,severe constipation and diarrhea,liver and renal damage(P>0.05). Conclusion Compared with CT,HCT can significantly increase short?term curative effect,ameliorate the quality of life,and it does not increase the incidence of adverse reactions. HCT is worthy of clinical applica?tion.
