A meta-analysis of efficacy and safety of sorafenib versus other targeted agents for metastatic renal cell carcinoma
BACKGROUND: Molecular targeted therapies were found to be efficacious and safer in the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). Sorafenib is the first target agent (TA) to report a benefit in this disease and has largely established a prominent role in progression-free survival (PFS). Ho...

description | BACKGROUND: Molecular targeted therapies were found to be efficacious and safer in the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). Sorafenib is the first target agent (TA) to report a benefit in this disease and has largely established a prominent role in progression-free survival (PFS). However, there have been conflicting results across the trials that evaluated the efficacy of sorafenib. OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study was to perform a meta-analysis to compare the efficacy and safety of sorafenib in first-line treatments of mRCC. METHODS: We searched online electronic databases: PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library updated on September 2017. Trials on the efficacy of sorafenib in first-line treatments of advanced RCC were included, of which the primary outcomes were objective response rate (ORR), PFS, overall survival (OS), and grade 3/4 adverse events (AEs). RESULTS: A total of 5 trials were included in this analysis. The group of AEs showed significantly improved PFS (odds ratio [OR] = 0.78, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.70–0.86, P < .001), as well with the ORR (OR = 1.89, 95%CI = 1.38–2.59, P < .0001) compared with sorafenib. However, there was no significant difference in OS (OR = 0.97, 95%CI = 0.78–1.22, P = .82). CONCLUSION: Sorafenib did not achieve efficacy and safety benefit in patients with mRCC compared with those treated with TAs. The role of sorafenib in first-line treatments of mRCC may change in favor of newer drugs. More research is needed to confirm whether these new TAs could replace sorafenib as the gold standard in the future. |
