Summary: The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Veliparib combined with chemotherapy for lung cancer treatment. The results showed that Veliparib combined with chemotherapy could prolong the progression-free survival in small cell lung cancer patients, but had no significant impact on overall survival and objective response rate. Additionally, this combination therapy caused some side effects in patients with lung cancer.

Summary: This study used meta-analysis to evaluate the effect of the combination treatment of Kangai injection (KAI) and platinum-based chemotherapy on patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The analysis showed that the combination treatment was more beneficial than chemotherapy alone, improving clinical efficacy, enhancing immune function, and reducing chemotherapy toxicity.

Summary: In comparing S1 monotherapy with combination therapy of nab-paclitaxel, the latter showed higher objective response rate and disease control rate in elderly patients with metastatic or locally advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Although the combination therapy had a higher risk of leukopenia, there were no significant differences in other side effects like thrombocytopenia, neurotoxicity, vomiting, and alopecia. Hence, the combination of nab-paclitaxel and S1 appears to be a safe and effective option for elderly patients.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical efficacy, adverse reactions, and safety of combining PD-1 inhibitors with chemotherapy for advanced gastric cancer. The research group showed improved outcomes, including higher remission rate, disease control rate, and overall survival compared to the control group. The patients in the research group also experienced a significant improvement in their physical condition and quality of life. Importantly, both groups had comparable incidence rates of adverse reactions.

Summary: This study evaluated the feasibility and efficacy of Iodine-125 brachytherapy combined with arterial infusion chemotherapy in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer. The results showed that the combined treatment group had significantly higher local control rate, survival rate, and pain relief compared to the arterial infusion chemotherapy group, with longer survival time. Therefore, Iodine-125 brachytherapy combined with arterial infusion chemotherapy may be an effective treatment option for advanced pancreatic cancer.

Summary: This review evaluated the efficacy and safety of Compound Kushen injection (CKI) combined with intraperitoneal chemotherapy (IPC) for the treatment of malignant ascites (MA). The findings showed that CKI combined with IPC had advantages in increasing the objective response rate (ORR) and quality of life (QoL) compared to IPC alone, with fewer adverse drug reactions. However, more high-quality randomized controlled trials are needed to validate this conclusion.
