Popis: | Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is usually diagnosed in advanced stage, which causes difficulty of using surgical treatment. Previous studies demonstrated that tyroserleutide (YSL), an immunologically active tripeptide compound, could suppress the proliferation and tumor formation of some liver cancer cell lines. We aimed to investigate the feasibility and toxicity of continuous administration of YSL by a portable infusion pump to patients with advanced HCC and its biologically effective but non-toxic doses used in outpatient setting. Forty patients (12 in stage 1, 28 in stage 2, total 10 treated in each dose cohort) were treated with YSL 6, 12, 18 or 24 mg/d lasting for 5 days. No treatment-related mortality was observed. The overall response rates were 25% (3/12) and 7.2% (2/28) in stages 1 and 2 respectively. The median 6-month overall survival (OS) in stage 1 were 75, 64, and 41 days for 6, 18, and 24 mg/d groups respectively; all patients survived in the 12 mg/d group. The median OS in stage 2 were 68, 72, and 60 days for 12, 18, and 24 mg/d groups respectively; all survived in the 6 mg/d group. The most common adverse reactions were abnormal liver function (59/107) and hemogram (22/107). The dose limiting toxicities of 24 mg/d group contained abdominal distention (1/10), sicchasia (1/10), hyponatremia (1/10), myocardiac ischemia (1/10), and abnormal hemogram (6/10). We conclude that the continuous administration of YSL by portable infusion pump was well tolerated. Treatment responses of doses 6 and 12 mg/d were better than other two groups. Further studies of continuous infusion of YSL to determine its efficacy are warranted.
