Meta analysis of the second course of radiotherapy for recurrent esophageal cancer1.
Background: How to improve efficacy and reduce side effects in treating recurrent esophageal cancer by applying the second course of radiotherapy alone and its combination with chemotherapy has been attracting broad research interest.
Objective: This review paper aims to systematically evaluate efficacy and side effects of applying the second course of anterograde radiotherapy alone and its combination with chemotherapy in treating recurrent esophageal cancer.
Methods: First, the relevant research papers are retrieved from PubMed, CNKI and Wanfang databases. Next, Redman 5.3 software is used to calculate the relative risk and 95% confidence interval to evaluate the efficacy and adverse reactions of applying the single-stage radiotherapy with and without combining single/multi dose chemotherapy to treat recurrent esophageal cancer. Then, a meta data analysis is applied to examine the effectiveness and side effects of radiation alone and re-course radiotherapy plus chemotherapy in treating esophageal cancer recurrence after the first radiotherapy.
Results: Fifteen papers are retrieved, which included 956 patients. Among them, 476 patients received radiotherapy combined with single drug/multi drug chemotherapy (observation) and others received only radiotherapy (control). Data analysis results show that the incidence of radiation induced lung injury and bone marrow suppression is high in the observation group. Subgroup analysis also shows the higher effective rate or one-year overall survival rate of patients treated with the second course radiotherapy combined with single drug chemotherapy.
Conclusion: The meta-analysis result demonstrates that combining the second course of radiotherapy with single-drug chemotherapy has advantages in treating recurrent esophageal cancer with the manageable side effects. However, due to insufficient data, it is not possible to conduct the further subgroup analysis comparing the side effects of restorative radiation with the combined chemotherapy using between a single drug and multiple drugs.
