Effective maNagement of depression among patients witH cANCEr (ENHANCE): A hybrid systematic review and (attempted) network meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
Background
Optimal intervention(s) for depression among people with cancer are unknown, as all available approaches have not been compared. This hybrid systematic review aimed to identify the most effective and acceptable intervention(s) using network meta-analysis (NMA).
Methods
Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of depression interventions among adults with cancer experiencing depressive symptoms were identified from database searches for previous systematic reviews and more recent RCTs. Screening, data extraction, Risk of Bias (RoB2) and Research Integrity Assessment (RIA; for descriptive rather than screening purposes) were performed independently, in duplicate. Primary outcomes were change in depressive symptoms (efficacy/effectiveness) and the rate who discontinued (acceptability). As the planned NMA was not appropriate, a narrative critical synthesis was performed.
Findings
70 RCTs (6831 participants) were included (43 psychotherapy, 14 pharmacotherapy, 8 complementary and alternative medicine, 7 collaborative care, 4 exercise, and 3 combination therapy interventions). No significant differences regarding acceptability were evident. Reliable efficacy/effectiveness comparisons using NMA were not possible due to RoB (44.3 % Some concerns, 54.3 % High RoB). Only 10 RCTs had no integrity concerns. Integrity issues included no pre-registration (n = 56/80 %), insufficient reporting on randomisation (n = 27/38.6 %) and ethics (n = 32/40 %), and questionable effect sizes (n = 26/37 %). The most reliable evidence was for collaborative care.
Conclusions
The literature on depression interventions for people with cancer is at RoB, pointing to an urgent need for high-quality research. Until such evidence is available, treatment decisions should continue to be based on evidence from other patient groups and clinical expertise, though there is some evidence that collaborative care is effective.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Psychosomatic Research is a multidisciplinary research journal covering all aspects of the relationships between psychology and medicine. The scope is broad and ranges from basic human biological and psychological research to evaluations of treatment and services. Papers will normally be concerned with illness or patients rather than studies of healthy populations. Studies concerning special populations, such as the elderly and children and adolescents, are welcome. In addition to peer-reviewed original papers, the journal publishes editorials, reviews, and other papers related to the journal''s aims.
