Methods: Patients of mCRC treated with bevacizumab or not at Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center from 2005 to 2013 were recruited as the study group and control group. The endpoints were objective response rate(ORR), disease control rate(DCR), overall survival(OS) and progression free survival(PFS). The OS and PFS of first-, second- and third-line treatment groups were compared between study group and control group. Results: The median PFS of the study and the control group were 8.2 months(7.0–9.4 months), 5.7 months(4.7–6.6 months), P = 0.001; OS were 26 months(5.4–130.5 months), 18 months(16.6–19.4 months), P < 0.001, respectively. The ORR and DCR of first-, second- and third-line were 30.3%(20/66), 20%(6/30), 17.6%(3/17) and 97%(64/66), 86.7%(26/30), 100%(17/17). In the first-line chemotherapy group, the OS of the study group and the control group were 22.9(5.4–96.7) months and 18(16.6–19.4) months(P < 0.001); PFS were 9.4(8.4–10.4) months and 5.7(4.7–6.6) months(P < 0.001), respectively. While in the second- and third-line setting, only OS were statistically different, PFS had no significant difference. Conclusion: The combination of bevacizumab and chemotherapy had a promising short-term and long-term efficacy in Chinese mCRC patients than those without bevacizumab regimens, and the effect could be better reflected in the first-line treatment.展开更多

To investigate its efficacy, optimal partner to combine with and maintenance therapy, we performed a retrospective study based on Chinese patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Methods: Patients with MBC treated with bevacizumab-contained regimens at the Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center from 2006 to 2010 were recruited to the study. The primary endpoints were overall survival (OS), time to progression (TTP), objective response rate (ORR), and disease control rate (DCR). These endpoints were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier and Chi-squared tests, respectively. Results: (1) A total of 229 cycles of bevacizumab with a median cycle of 7 (1-34) were administered among 25 patients. (2) In the whole group, ORR and DCR were 60% (15/25) and 76% (19/25), respectively. The mTTP was 5 months (1-21), mOS from diagnosis was 48 months (13-172), mOS from bevacizumab administration was 24 months (1-45). (3) Both ORR (73.7% vs. 16.7%, P = 0.023) and DCR (94.7% vs. 33.3%, P = 0.005) were significant higher once patients treated with the combination of taxanes-based regimen and bevacizamab when compared with the combination with non-taxanes-based regimens. (4) In the taxanes-based group, no matter bevacizumab used in first line or non-first line, the differences of ORR (P = 0.637) and DCR (P = 0.316) were insignificant. However, the maintenance therapy with bevacizumab will bring more longer TTP (P < 0.001) than those without maintenance therapy. Conclusion: Taxanes-based regimens were the optimal candidate to combine with bevacizumab regardless the timing in palliative setting, however, the maintenance therapy with bevacizumab should be considered once indicated.展开更多

Methods: All the papers studied on Chinese cancer patients treated by bevacizumab were found in both databases of Chinese journal database for fulltext and PubMed were collected. The commonly used efficacy index such as disease control rate (CR + PR + SD) and response rate (CR + PR) were analyzed, and the bevacizumab related side effects were analyzed too. Results: (1) There were ten original papers contained total 199 patients who were the candidates to analyze the safety profiles, and 115 patients with colorectal cancer in five papers who were candidates to analyze the efficacy. (2) Nine in ten papers set the dose of bevacizumab in 2.5 mg/kg/week - 5 mg/kg/week, and the biweekly was the standard chemotherapy interval. (3) The disease control rate and response rate in Chinese colorectal cancer patients were 85% (95% CI: 79%-92%) and 61% (95% CI: 52%-70%), respectively. (4) The side effects related to bevacizumab were rare and most of them were grades 1-2, and only one case with grade 4 bleeding was recorded and only two cases with discontinuation of bevacizumab since hemoplysis. Also, the grades 3-4 side effects related cytotoxic agents were not common. Conclusion: This study summarized the data of Chinese cancer patients treated by bevacizumab-contained regimens, and it showed that the monoclonal antibody was effective and safe for Chinese patients as the West patients.展开更多
