Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To systematically review the efficacy and safety of ramucirumab in the treatment of adenocarcinoma in stomach or gastroesophagealjunction,and provide evidence-based reference for clinic. METHODS:Retrieved from Wanfang database,CJFD,PubMed,EBSCO,Medline and Cochrane Library,randomized controlled trials(RCT) oframucirumab and (or) other medicines or other chemotherapy (test group) versus placebo or and Clinical Trials. gov other antibiotics(control goroup) were collected with time limit from establishment to Sept. 2015. Meta-analysis was performed by using Rev Man 5.3 software after data extraction and quality evaluation by Cochrane systematic review manual 5.1.0. RESULTS:Totally 3 RCTs involving 1 188 patients were enrolled,including 652 patients in the test group and 536 patients incontrol group. Results of Meta-analysis showed, the overall survival[HR=0.83,95%CI(0.72,0.95),P=0.006] and progression-freesurvival[HR=0.66,95%CI(0.47,0.92),P=0.01] in test group were significantly longer than control group,the difference was statistically significant;there was no significant difference in the objective response rate[RR=1.31,95%CI(0.81,2.11),P=0.28]. The incidence of severe adverse reactions(degree level:3-4 grade) in test group was significantly higher than control group,the difference was statistically significant [RR=1.14, 95%CI (1.00,1.29),P=0.04].CONCLUSIONS:Ramucirumab can extend overall survival and progression-free survival of adenocarcinoma in stomach or gastro-oesophageal junction,but the incidence of adverse reactions should be noticed.
