Abstract:
Objective The study aimed to observe the clinical effects and the adverse reactions of recombinant mutant human tumor necrosis factor-alpha ( rhu-TNF) on the treatment of malignant pleural effusion ( MPE) induced by lung adenocarcinoma . Methods 70 patients with MPE caused by lung adenocarcinoma hospitalized in our department were chosen as the research objects . After conventional drainage of pleural effusion , the patients were divided into two groups according to the weight , respectively receiving intra pleural injection of 2 000 000 units and 3 000 000 units of rhu-TNF, followed by the observation of clinical effects and adverse reac-tions.A further retrospective analysis were made on the effects of dexamethasone injected before operation on clinical effects and ad -verse events. Results The effective rates of 2 000 000 unit group and 3 000 000 unit group were respectively 75.68%and 87.88%(P=0.23), with no statistical difference.The adverse reactions in the group of patients being injected dexamethasone before operation significantly reduced(P=0.021) and the use of dexamethasone had no influence on the efficacy of rhu-TNF ( P=0 .486 ) . Conclusion Rhu-TNF is a safe drug with high efficiency in the treatment of MPE induced by lung adenocarcinoma , and the efficacy and safety of re-peated application in clinic still need more supporting data .
