ABSTRACT
Purpose To investigate the safety and efficacy of lobaplatin-TACE in the treatment of primary hepatocellular carcinoma. Method The data of 536 patients who underwent TACE in the interventional department from January 2016 to January 2020 were collected. Patients were divided into two groups according to the chemotherapeutic drugs used in TACE.: epirubicin-TACE group(N = 260), lobaplatin-TACE group(N = 276). Primary study endpoint: (1) The tumor response after TACE; (2)The survival rates ; Secondary study endpoints:(1)Changes of liver function and blood routine before and after TACE;(2)Occurrence of post-embolization syndrome and infection after TACE. Results The ORR was 35.0% in epirubicin-TACE group and 51.1% in lobaplatin-TACE group(P=0.001). The DCR was 73.1% in epirubicin-TACE group and 82.2% in lobaplatin-TACE group(P=0.011). The 6-month, 9-month, 12-month, and 15-month survival rates were higher in the lobaplatin-TACE group than in the epirubicin-TACE group(P=0.029,P=0.001,P=0.005,P=0.002). mOS: Epirubicin-TACE group,14.8 months; Lobaplatin-TACE group,18.6 months (P =0.007). mPFS: Epirubicin-TACE group,9.5 months; Lobaplatin-TACE group,12.8 months (P =0.000). There was no statistical difference in ALT, AST, total bilirubin and Leucocyte after TACE between the two groups (P=0.343,P=0.368,P=0.288,P=0.359). The platelet decrease after TACE was more significant in the lobaplatin-TACE group than in the epirubicin-TACE group (P=0.046). There was no statistical difference in the incidence rate of abdominal pain, fever and infection after TACE between the two groups (P=0.502,P=0.602,P=0.726).The incidence of vomiting after TACE in the lobaplatin-TACE group was higher than that in the epirubicin-TACE group (P=0.003). Conclusion Lobaplatin-TACE has higher tumor response rate and survival rate.Lobaplatin-TACE is a safe and effective treatment strategy,it is worthy of clinical application.
