Abstract:
Objective:To determine whether treatment of radiation(RT) and tyrosine kinase inhibitor(TKI) improve survival compared with treatment of non-RT and non-TKI for patients with leptomeningeal metastases from lung cancer.Methods:The PubMed,EMBASE,Web of Science,and Cochrane Library were searched for articles which related to treatment of lung cancer with leptomeningeal metastases.The main outcome was overall survival(OS) and was compared by hazard ratios(HR).Statistical analysis was performed using the software Review Manager 5.3 and STATA MP14.0.Results:11 retrospective studies that included a total of 993 patients were eligible.RT significantly improved OS compared with non-RT treatment(HR:0.65,95%CI:0.52~0.81,P<0.001),and TKI provided significant OS benefit compared with non-TKI treatment(HR:0.3,95%CI:0.24~0.38,P<0.001).Conclusion:Evidences from the current Meta-analysis suggested a potential OS benefit from RT and TKI treatment for patients with leptomeningeal metastases from lung cancer.Further prospective randomised controlled trials(RCT) are needed to confirm these findings.
