Abstract

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of recombinant human endostatin (endostar)combined with intravenous chemotherapy and intraperitoneal hyperthermic perfusion chemotherapy for advanced ovarian cancer (AOC).Methods Sixty-one patients with AOC were divided into treatment group (31 cases) and control group (30 cases) by table of random digit.The treatment group was given endostar +TP project (paclitaxel intravenous chemotherapy + cisplatin intraperitoneal hyperthermic perfusion chemotherapy).The control group was given endostar + TP project (paclitaxel and cisplatin intravenous chemotherapy).The recurrence rate,survival rate,improvement of quality of life (QOL) and drug side effects were observed in two groups.Results The improvement rate of QOL in treatment group was significantly higher than that in control group [64.5%(20/31) vs.33.3%(10/30),x2 =5.931,P=0.015].The 1-year and 2-year recurrence rate in treatment group were significantly lower than those in control group [17.2%(5/29)vs.41.4%(12/29),34.5%(10/29) vs.62.1%(18/29),P=0.043 and 0.036].The 1-year and 2-year survival rate in treatment group were significantly higher than those in control group [93.1%(27/29) vs.72.4%(21/29),79.3% (23/29) vs.51.7% (15/29),P =0.037 and 0.027].The incidence of nausea and vomiting in treatment group was significantly lower than that in control group [67.7% (21/31) vs.93.3% (28/30),P =0.012],there was no significant differences in bone marrow suppression,hair loss and liver and renal injury incidence between two groups (P >0.05).Conclusion Endostar combined with intravenous chemotherapy and intraperitoneal hyperthermic perfusion chemotherapy for AOC is safe and effective,and can improve patients' QOL,reduce the rate of recurrence and prolong survival time.
