Abstract:Objective To analyze the clinical efficacy and survival of Anlotinib combined with Sintilimab in the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods The clinical data of eighty-two patients with advanced NSCLC admitted to the department of respiratory medicine of Shanghai pulmonary hospital from December 2018 to December 2020 were reviewed., and they were divided into an experimental group of 42 cases and a control group of 40 cases according to the treatment plan. The control group was given oral Anlotinib, 12 mg each time, once a day, for 14 consecutive days, with a cycle of 21 days, and the experimental group was given intravenous infusion of Sintilimab injection on the basis of the control group, 200 mg each time, 1 dose every 21 days. Both groups were treated until disease progression or intolerable drug side effects. The clinical efficacy, serum tumor markers, and immune function index levels were evaluated and compared between the two groups, the adverse drug reactions during the treatment period were counted, and the patients' survival was recorded during the 1-year follow-up.Results During the study period, 3 cases dropped out. After treatment, the objective remission rates of the experimental group and the control group were 30.95% and 12.50%, and the disease control rates were 85.71% and 65.00%. The experimental group was higher than the control group (P < 0.05). The differences of serum CA125 and CYFRA21-1 levels in the experimental group before and after treatment were higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05). The differences of CD3+, CD4+, CD4+/CD8+, and NK in the experimental group before and after treatment were higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05). During the treatment, there were 1 case of grade Ⅲthrombocytopenia and 1 case of grade Ⅲ hypertension in the experimental group, 1 case of grade Ⅲ bleeding and 1 case of grade Ⅳ hypertension in the control group, and the rest of the adverse reactions were grades Ⅰ to Ⅱ. There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse drug reactions (P > 0.05). By the end of the follow-up, the cumulative survival rates of the experimental group and the control group were 64.29% and 47.50%. The cumulative survival rate curves of the two groups were compared, and the experimental group was higher than the control group (P < 0.05).Conclusion Anlotinib combined with Sintilimab has definite clinical efficacy in the treatment of advanced NSCLC, which can effectively improve the immune function of patients, with tolerable adverse reactions and improved prognosis.
