AI Article Synopsis

  • The study aimed to explore how gene polymorphisms affect the safety of irinotecan in colorectal cancer patients, analyzing data from 30 studies with a total of 4,471 patients.
  • Significant increases in odds ratios (OR) were found for side effects like diarrhea and neutropenia associated with genetic variations, with specific models showing varying levels of risk.
  • The findings indicated that certain alleles might be important indicators for predicting the safety of irinotecan treatment in both Asian and non-Asian populations.

Article Abstract

To evaluate the association between irinotecan safety and the gene polymorphism in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. The studies were systematically searched and identified from three databases (PubMed, Embase and The Cochrane Library) until 28 February 2023. The relationships were evaluated using pooled odds ratio (OR). A total of 30 studies out of 600 were included, comprising 4471 patients. was associated with a statistically significant increase in the OR for diarrhea (OR: 1.59, 95% CI = 1.24-2.06 in the additive model; OR = 3.24, 95% CI = 2.01-5.21 in the recessive model; and OR = 1.95, 95% CI = 1.42-2.69 in the dominant model) and neutropenia (OR = 1.70, 95% CI = 1.40-2.06 in the additive model; OR = 4.10, 95%CI = 2.69-6.23 in the recessive model; and OR = 1.93, 95% CI = 1.61-2.31 in the dominant model). Subgroup analysis indicated consistent associations in both Asian and non-Asian populations. was associated with a statistically significant elevation in the OR for diarrhea (only in the recessive model, OR = 2.42; 95% CI = 1.14-5.11) and neutropenia (across all genetic models). The and alleles might be a crucial indicator for predicting irinotecan safety in CRC.

We compared the cost-effectiveness of gemcitabine plus nab-paclitaxel (GnP) and modified FOLFIRINOX (mFFX)-standard first-line treatments for metastatic pancreatic cancer in Japan. This retrospective cohort study included patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer treated at the National Cancer Center Hospital East in Japan between December 2013 and February 2017. A partitioned survival model, featuring five mutually exclusive health states, was developed.

This study (NCT04728035) aimed to explore the safety and efficacy of liposomal irinotecan (HE072) in patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC). This study consisted of two parts. In part 1, the 3 + 3 design was used to investigate three dose levels of HE072 (50, 70 and 90 mg/m).

Article Synopsis
  • A study explored salvage chemotherapy using capecitabine plus oxaliplatin (XELOX) for gastric cancer patients who couldn't tolerate or were resistant to cisplatin, but it was halted due to low patient enrollment.
  • 12 patients participated, revealing a disease control rate of 90% and a response rate of 30%, with median progression-free survival of 4.2 months and overall survival of 7.1 months.
  • Common severe side effects included fatigue and low potassium levels, but there were no treatment-related deaths, suggesting XELOX might be beneficial for these patients.

Second-line systemic treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer: A systematic review and Bayesian network meta-analysis based on RCT.

PLoS One

December 2024

Department of Colorectal Surgery, The Affiliated Xuzhou Clinical College of Xuzhou Medical University, Xuzhou Central Hospital, Xuzhou, Jiangsu, China.

Background: The optimal second-line systemic treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) is inconclusive.

Methods: We searched PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library for RCTs comparing second-line systemic treatments for mCRC from the inception of each database up to February 3, 2024. Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) technique was used in this network meta-analysis (NMA) to generate the direct and indirect comparison results among multiple treatments in progression-free survival (PFS), overall response rate (ORR), overall survival (OS), complete response (CR), partial response (PR), grade 3 and above adverse events (Grade ≥ 3AE), and any adverse events (Any AE).

Introduction: Nanoliposomal irinotecan (nal-IRI) + 5- fluorouracil (FU)/leucovorin (LV) is the new standard second-line therapy for advanced pancreatic cancer (PC). Tegafur, gimeracil, and oteracil potassium (S-1) have been used in advanced PC after gemcitabine (GEM) plus nab-paclitaxel treatment, but the clinical difference between nal-IRI+5-FU/LV and S-1 remains unclear.

Methods: We retrospectively compared the efficacy and safety of nal-IRI+5-FU/LV and S-1 in patients with advanced PC refractory to GEM plus nab-paclitaxel.
