- Abstract: Objective To investigate the clinical effectiveness and safety of apatinib mesylate combined with gemcitabine+cisplatin(GC)and camrelizumab in the treatment of advanced gallbladder cancer,and to provide evidence for the clinical treatment of patients with advanced gallbladder cancer.Methods A total of 75 patients with advanced gallbladder cancer admitted to Henan Provincial People's Hospital and The Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2022 to December 2023 were retrospectively included.According to treatment plans,they were divided into study group(apatinib mesylate combined with GC+camrelizumab)and control group(GC+camrelizumab).The 1-year survival rate,objective response rate(ORR),disease control rate(DCR),progression-free survival(PFS),overall survival(OS),and adverse reactions were compared between the two groups.Inter-group comparisons were performed using the chi-square test/Fisher's exact test,the t-test,and the Mann-Whitney U test for categorical data,continuous data in normal distribution,and continuous data in non-normal distribution,respectively.The Kaplan-Meier survival curves were generated and compared using the log-rank test.Results The ORR and DCR of the study group were 35.0%and 80.0%,respectively,which were not significantly different from those of the control group(bothP>0.05).The 1-year survival rate of the study group differed significantly from that of the control group(45.0%vs 20.0%,P<0.05).The median PFS was 7.73(95%confidence interval[CI]:4.39-11.01)months in the study group and 4.17(95%CI:3.48-4.85)months in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.01).The median OS was 11.77(95%CI:8.07-15.47)months in the study group and 7.97(95%CI:5.84-10.09)months in the control group,which were not statistically significant(P>0.05).Across all grades of adverse reactions,the study group showed significantly higher incidence rates of hand-foot syndrome(62.5%vs 34.3%,χ2=5.945,P<0.05)and elevated blood pressure(42.5%vs 20.0%,χ2=4.343,P<0.05)than the control group.There were no significant differences in the incidence rates of adverse reactions of grade Ⅲ or above between the two groups(all P>0.05).Conclusion Apatinib mesylate combined with GC+camrelizumab is superior to GC+camrelizumab in prolonging the PFS but not in terms of the OS,with controllable toxic side effects,which is a safe and effective treatment regimen.
