RESUMO
@#[Abstract] Objective: To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of nivolumab plus ipilimumab versus nivolumab monotherapy in the treatment of malignant tumors, so as to provide evidence-based medical proof for clinical administration. Methods: Databases, such as PubMed, CNKI, VIP, and Wanfang Data, were searched from January 2000 to January 2022 to collect the clinical trial data in terms of nivolumab plus ipilimumab versus nivolumab monotherapy for malignant tumors were published in both domestic and abroad. Two reviewers independently evaluated the quality of included RCTs, and extracted and cross-checked the data. RevMan 5. 4 was used for the Meta-analysis. Results: A total of 7 RCTs studies including 10 articles were included. Compared with the nivolumab monotherapy group, the OS of patients in the combined treatment group was significantly improved (HR=0.86, 95% CI:0. 75-0.99, P=0. 03), and the PFS was significantly prolonged (HR=0.69, 95% CI: 0.55-0.85, P=0.000 6). However, as for safety, treatment-related adverse events (OR=3.18, 95% CI: 1.55-6.55, P=0.002) and adverse events leading to drug discontinuation (OR=7.11, 95% CI: 4.85-10.42, P<0.000 01) in the combination therapy group were significantly higher than those in the monotherapy group. Conclusion: Compared with nivolumab monotherapy, nivolumab plus ipilimumab can significantly improve the OS and PFS of tumor patients, but is also associated with more treatment-related adverse events and adverse events leading to drug discontinuation. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to follow-up and regular monitoring to prevent the occurrence of serious adverse reactions.
