ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of fluzopril in the treatment of platinum-sensitive recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer.Methods A total of 107 patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Science and Technology from January 2019 to December 2020 were selected as the subjects.According to treatment methods,the patients were divided into control group(n=50)and observation group(n=57).The patients in the control group received a first-line chemotherapy regimen of paclitaxel combined with platinumon the first day,intravenous infusion with paclitaxel injection 135 mg·m-2 was administered;on day 1-3,intravenous drip with cisplatin 50-60 mg·m-2 was administered;21 days was one chemotherapy cycle.On the basis of the treatment in the control group,the patients in the observation group were given fluzoparide capsules orally,150 mg each time,twice a day,and the treatment continued until disease progression or unacceptable toxic reactions occurred;21 days was one chemotherapy cycle.The patients in both groups received three consecutive chemotherapy cycles.The clinical efficacy,prognosis within 2 years after chemotherapy,Karnofsky Performance Status(KPS)score before and after chemotherapy,and incidence of adverse reactions during chemotherapy of patients between the two groups were compared.Results After 3 cycles of chemo-therapy,the disease control rate and objective remission rate of patients in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group(x2=5.420,4.220;P＜0.05).Following up to 24 months,the progression free survival of patients in the observation group was significantly longer than that in the control group(t=6.702,P＜0.05);there was no statistically significant difference in 1-year survival rate of patients between the two groups(x2=0.415,P＞0.05);the 2-year survival rate of patients in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group(x2=5.420,P＜0.05).Before chemotherapy,there was no statistically significant difference in KPS scores of patients between the two groups(t=0.537,P＞0.05);the KPS scores of patients in the two groups after three cycles of chemotherapy were significantly higher than those before chemotherapy(t=5.604,9.378;P＜0.05);after three cycles of chemotherapy,the KPS score of patients in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group(t=2.608,P＜0.05).The patients in both groups experienced hematological and non-hematological adverse reactions during chemotherapy;the main hematological adverse reactions was bone marrow suppression,most of which were Ⅲ ° and Ⅳ ° adverse reactions;the non-hematological adverse reactions included alo-pecia,gastrointestinal reactions,and liver and kidney dysfunction,most of which were Ⅰ°and Ⅱ°adverse reactions.There were no chemotherapy related deaths of patients in both groups.The incidence rates of anemia,thrombocytopenia,neutropenia,leuko-penia,lymphopenia,nausea,vomiting,fatigue,loss of appetite,hair loss,elevated serum creatinine,and elevated alanine amino-transferase(ALT)of patients during chemotherapy in the control group were 68.00％(34/50),72.00％(36/50),58.00％(29/50),68.00％(34/50),22.00％(11/50),26.00％(13/50),24.00％(12/50),46.00％(23/50),30.00％(15/50),50.00％(25/50),20.00％(10/50),10.00％(5/50),respectively;the incidence rates of anemia,thrombocytopenia,neutropenia,leukopenia,lymphopenia,nausea,vomiting,fatigue,loss of appetite,hair loss,elevated serum creatinine,and elevated ALT of patients during chemotherapy in the observation group were 61.40％(35/57),63.16％(36/57),49.12％(28/57),52.63％(30/57),21.05％(12/57),22.81％(13/57),24.56％(14/57),42.11％(24/57),29.82％(17/57),47.37％(27/57),21.05％(12/57),10.53％(6/57),respectively.There was no statistically significant difference in the incidences of anemia,thrombocytopenia,neutropenia,leukopenia,lymphopenia,nausea,vomiting,fatigue,loss of appetite,hair loss,elevated serum creatinine,and elevated ALT of patients during chemotherapy between the control group and the observation group(x2=0.047,0.000,0.041,0.694,0.056,0.000,0.208,0.041,0.184,0.160,0.233,0.102;P＞0.05).Conclusion For patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer,the combination of paclitaxel and platinum chemo-therapy combined with fluzopril can effectively improve the anti-tumor effect,prolong the progression-free survival,improve survival rate and quality of life,and the adverse reactions are controllable.
