Objective: This study was aimed at investigating the efficacy of PARP inhibitor combined with bevacizumab in the treatment of platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian epithelial carcinoma.
Methods: A total of 84 patients with platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian epithelial carcinoma treated in our hospital from May 2017 to June 2018 were selected as the research objects. The patients were divided into observation group (n = 42) and control group (n = 42) according to random number table method. The observation group was treated with olaparib combined with bevacizumab, while the control group was treated with albumin-bound paclitaxel combined with bevacizumab, and the clinical efficacy of the two groups was observed. The levels of serum carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125), carbohydrate antigen 199 (CA199), and epididymal protein 4 (HE4) were determined. The levels of miRNA124, mirNA-21, and miRNA-203 in the two groups were detected. The incidence of adverse reactions was compared between the two groups. The quality of life of the two groups was assessed using FACT-G scale. The drug safety of the two groups was observed. All patients were followed up for 3 years, and the survival time of the two groups was recorded. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the survival of the two groups.
Results: The overall response rate (ORR) (69.05%) and disease control rate (DCR) (88.10%) of the observation group were higher than those of the control group (40.48% and 66.67%), and the differences were statistically significant (both P < 0.05). After treatment, the levels of serum CA125, CA199, HE4, miRNA124, miRNA-21, and miRNA-203 and the improvement degree of quality of life score in the observation group were greater than those in the control group, with statistical significances (all P < 0.05).The 1-year, 2-year, and 3-year survival rates of the observation group (97.62%, 88.10%, and 80.95%) were higher than those of the control group (71.43%, 57.14%, and 47.62%), with statistical significances (all P > 0.05).
Conclusion: PARP inhibitor combined with bevacizumab had good effect in the treatment of platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian epithelial carcinoma and can effectively improve the survival time and quality of life of patients.
