Treatment options for recurrent platinum-resistant ovarian cancer: A systematic review and Bayesian network meta-analysis based on RCTs.

ABSTRACT:

Background

There are a variety of treatment options for recurrent platinum-resistant ovarian cancer, and the optimal specific treatment still remains to be determined. Therefore, this Bayesian network meta-analysis was conducted to investigate the optimal treatment options for recurrent platinum-resistant ovarian cancer.

Methods

Pubmed, Cochrane, Embase, and Web of Science were searched for articles published until 15 June 2022. The outcome measures for this meta-analysis were overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and adverse events (AEs) of Grade 3-4. The Cochrane assessment tool for risk of bias was used to evaluate the risk of bias of the included original studies. The Bayesian network meta-analysis was conducted. This study was registered on PROSPERO (CRD42022347273).

Results

Our systematic review included 11 RCTs involving 1871 patients and 11 treatments other than chemotherapy. The results of meta-analysis showed that the overall survival (OS) was the highest in adavosertib + gemcitabine compared with conventional chemotherapy, (HR=0.56,95%CI:0.35-0.91), followed by sorafenib + topotecan (HR=0.65, 95%CI:0.45-0.93). In addition, Adavosertib + Gemcitabine regimen had the highest PFS (HR=0.55,95%CI:0.34-0.88), followed by Bevacizumab + Gemcitabine regimen (HR=0.48,95%CI:0.38-0.60) and the immunotherapy of nivolumab was the safest (HR=0.164,95%CI:0.312-0.871) with least adverse events of Grades 3-4.

Conclusions

The results of this study indicated that Adavosertib (WEE1 kinase-inhibitor) + gemcitabine regimen and Bevacizumab + Gemcitabine regimen would be significantly beneficial to patients with recurrent platinum-resistant ovarian cancer, and could be preferred for recurrent platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. The immunotherapeutic agent, Nivolumab, is of considerable safety, with a low risk for grade-III or IV adverse events. Its safety is comparable to Adavosertib + gemcitabine regimen. Pazopanib + Paclitaxel (weekly regimen), Sorafenib + Topotecan/Nivolumab could be selected if there are contraindications of the above strategies.

Project description:Background: The Platinum-based combination has been proven to have an outstanding effect on patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer (PSROC), but the best scientific combination has not been established yet. The present study is aimed to seek the best treatment plan for PSROC. Methods: We did a systematic review and Bayesian network meta-analysis, during which lite before March 2022 were retrieved on PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Central Registry of Controlled databases. We included randomized controlled clinical trials comparing chemotherapy combinations with other treatments for patients with PSROC. The important outcomes concerned were progression-free survival (PFS) (the primary outcome), overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), adverse events (AEs), and AEs-related discontinuation. All outcomes were ranked according to the surface under the cumulative ranking curve. Results: 26 trials involving 10441 patients were retrieved in this study. For the initial treatment of PSROC, carboplatin plus pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) plus bevacizumab had the best PFS [hazard ratio (HR) 0.59, 95% credible interval (CI) 0.51-0.68]; Carboplatin plus paclitaxel plus bevacizumab resulted in the best OS (HR 1.22, 95% CI 1.09-1.35) and ORR [odds ratio (OR) 1.22, 95% CI 1.09-1.35]. For the maintenance therapy in PSROC, poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi) following platinum-based chemotherapy provided the best PFS (HR 0.64, 95% CI 0.61-0.68), the highest frequency of adverse events of grade three or higher (OR 0.18, 95% CI 0.07-0.44) but the treatment discontinuation was generally low. Subgroup analysis suggested that trabectedin plus PLD was comparable to single platinum in prolonging PFS in the platinum-free interval (6-12 months). Conclusion: Both platinum-based chemotherapy plus PARPi and platinum-based chemotherapy plus bevacizumab had higher survival benefits than other treatments in PSROC. Trabectedin plus PLD might be a potential alternative treatment strategy for the partially platinum-sensitive subpopulation with intolerance to platinum.

Project description:BackgroundEssential tremor (ET) significantly impacts patients' daily lives and quality of life, presenting a considerable challenge in clinical practice. In recent years, novel therapeutic regimens have been investigated in randomized controlled trials (RCTs). This study aims to investigate and evaluate the relative efficacy and safety of various therapeutic interventions for ET.MethodsWe did a systematic review and Bayesian Model-based Network Meta-analysis (NMA) of RCTs. Following PRISMA-NMA guidelines, a comprehensive database search was conducted up to April 1, 2024 to identify RCTs focused on ET treatments. The Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method was utilized for the analysis, evaluating the relative efficacy and safety of treatments using standardized mean difference (SMD) and log odds ratios (log ORs), respectively. Additionally, the Surface Under the Cumulative Ranking Curve (SUCRA) was applied to assess the relative efficacy of the treatment modalities. PROSPERO registration: CRD42023415752.FindingsThis study included 33 RCTs involving 1251 patients, covering 19 oral medication treatments and six non-oral medication treatments. NMA showed that deep brain stimulation (DBS) (SMD = -4.93; 95% CI: [-7.73, -2.13]), CX-8998 (SMD = -2.69; 95% CI: [-5.26, -0.14]), atenolol (SMD = -2.36; 95% CI: [-4.70, -0.10]), and propranolol (SMD = -1.59; 95% CI: [-2.25, -0.67]) showed relative efficacy compared to placebo, with DBS demonstrating relative efficacy compared to 15 other treatment methods. However, GRADE assessment indicated that the evidence level for these conclusions was "low" or "very low." According to SUCRA rankings, DBS (0.97) ranked first in relative efficacy, followed by CX-8998 (0.80), thalamotomy (0.79), atenolol (0.76), metoprolol (0.66), propranolol (0.64), magnetic resonance guided focus ultrasound (MR-FUS) (0.624), ICI-118551 (0.620), nimodipine (0.61) and phenobarbitone (0.59). In terms of safety, as a network graph could not be constructed, DBS and thalamotomy were excluded from the NMA, while other effective treatments showed no significant differences in safety compared to placebo.InterpretationOur study results indicate that CX-8998, propranolol, and atenolol demonstrate relative efficacy and safety in treating ET. DBS is effective for medication-resistant ET and ranks first in relative efficacy, though our NMA lacks safety data for DBS. Given the low overall grade of evidence, these results should be applied cautiously in clinical practice. Further large-scale, head-to-head RCTs are needed.FundingThis work was supported by grants from the National Nature Science Foundation of China (Grant No. 82271459).

Project description:At present, the optimal therapeutic approach for the treatment of platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian cancer remains to be fully elucidated. The present systematic review and network meta-analysis aimed to elucidate the relative efficacy and safety of apatinib, administered either as monotherapy or in conjunction with chemotherapy, compared with chemotherapy alone, for the treatment of platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian cancer. The PubMed, Embase and Wanfang Data electronic databases were searched, where the search spanned from the conception of the databases until April 2023. A quality evaluation was conducted and R software was used for network meta-analysis. Following inclusion and exclusion criteria screening, the present analysis included 17 clinical trials, combining data from 1,228 patients with platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian cancer categorized into the following three treatment cohorts: i) 555 patients who received apatinib plus chemotherapy; ii) 229 patients who received apatinib alone; and iii) 444 patients who underwent conventional chemotherapy. Results of the present study demonstrated that the co-administration of apatinib with either tegiol [odds ratio (OR), 2.54; 95% CI, 1.06-6.11] or etoposide (OR, 2.12; 95% CI, 1.20-3.74) significantly improved the objective response rate (ORR) compared with that following apatinib monotherapy. By contrast, gemcitabine monotherapy resulted in inferior ORR efficacy compared with that following apatinib (OR, 0.47; 95% CI, 0.23-0.95). In addition, combinations of apatinib with etoposide (OR, 1.32; 95% CI, 1.06-1.64) or paclitaxel (OR, 1.52; 95% CI, 1.04-2.23) demonstrated a significantly improved disease control rates (DCR) compared with those following apatinib alone. According to the area under the cumulative ranking analysis, apatinib and paclitaxel in combination was the most efficacious treatment modality in terms of DCR. In terms of safety, the incidence of adverse events, such as hand-foot syndrome [relative risk (RR), 4.23; 95% CI, 1.80-9.95] and hypertension (RR, 4.80; 95% CI, 1.53-15.05), was found to be significantly higher in patients treated with apatinib-containing therapies, compared with those treated with chemotherapy alone. Consequently, the present meta-analysis highlighted the potential of apatinib, particularly in combination with chemotherapy, as a therapeutic strategy for patients with platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian cancer.
