Abstract
Objective
To investigate the effect of tripterygium glycosides combined with recombinant human tumor necrosis factor receptor Ⅱ antibody fusion protein for injection on serum vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF), rheumatoid factor(RF), receptor activator of nuclear factor κ B ligand(RANKL) levels in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.To provide reference for rational clinical application.
Methods
From December 2014 to January 2016, 132 patients with rheumatoid arthritis were divided into observation group and control group by random number table method, , with 66 cases in each group, The control group was treated with tripterygium glycosides alone (10 mg each time, 3 times daily, orally) for 3 months.The observation group was treated with a combination of tripterygium glycosides and recombinant human tumor necrosis factor receptor Ⅱ (0.4 mg/kg, once weekly, hypodermic injection)for 3 months.The clinical efficacy, and serum VEGF, RF and RANKL levels were compared between 2 groups.
Results
The effective rate of the observation group was 92.4% (61/66), which was significantly higher than that in the control group (80.3%, 53/66). There was a significant difference between the two groups (χ2=4.117, P 0.05). After treatment, the levels of serum VEGF, RF and RANKL in the observation group and the control group were (20.8±11.5) ng/L and (27.3±13.1)ng/L, (258.4±54.5)U/L and (298.1±49.5)U/L, (0.083±0.021) pmol/L and (0.197±0.064), respectively.There were significant differences between the two groups (t=3.029, 4.381, 13.750, all P<0.05). The incidence rate of adverse reactions in the control group was 10.5% (7/66), which was significantly higher than that in the observation group (1.5%, 1/66). There was a significant difference between the two groups(χ2=4.790, P<0.05). The one-year recurrence rate was 25.0% (13/52) in the control group and that was 6.7% (4/60) in the observation group, respectively, and there was a significant difference between the two groups(χ2=7.272, P<0.05).
Conclusion
Tripterygium glycosidescombined with recombinant human tumor necrosis factor receptor Ⅱ antibody fusion protein for injection is effective in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, which reduces the levels of serum VEGF, RF and RANKL, and has a low incidence of adverse reactions and recurrence.
