Abstract:
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Quxie Capsule combined with fruquintinib in the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer(mCRC).Methods A prospective,non-randomized,controlled study was used to collect patients with mCRC who planned to receive third-line treatment after second-line treatment at Xiyuan Hospital of China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences,Guang'anmen Hospital of China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences,Dongfang Hospital Beijing University of Chinese Medicine,and Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine.The treatment group received Quxie Capsule combined with fruquintinib.The control group was treated with fruquintinib.The primary outcome measure was third-line overall survival(OS),and the secondary outcome measure was third-line progression-free survival(PFS).Results A total of 142 patients with mCRC were included in this study(79 in the treatment group and 63 in the control group).The median OS(mOS)was 19.0 months in the treatment group and 8.1 months in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant[HR=0.285,95%CI(0.183,0.436),P<0.001].The median PFS(mPFS)in the treatment group was 7 months,mPFS in the control group was 2 months,and the difference was statistically significant[HR=0.248,95%CI(0.165,0.362),P<0.001].In subgroups,such as age,gender,primary site,peritoneal metastasis,and genotype,mOS in the treatment group was longer than in the control group(P<0.001).Multivariate COX proportional hazard model analysis showed that peritoneal metastasis was an independent prognostic factor and the risk of death increased 2.14 times.The combination with Quxie Capsule was a protective factor,reducing the risk of death by 76.8%.Conclusion The Quxie Capsule combined with fruquintinib can prolong mOS survival and mPFS of mCRC treated in the third-line stage.
