To investigate the short-term effect of preoperative neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy combined with programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) inhibitors on the treatment of ulcerative colitis related colorectal cancer (UCRCC).
Methods
2
Clinical data of UCRCC patients who received PD-1 inhibitors combined with neoadjuvant therapy and surgically operated in the Second Hospital of Nanjing from March 2021 to December 2023 were retrospectively collected. Patients were divided into the control group (
n
=46) and combination group (
n
=34) based on preoperative treatment regimens. Patients in the control group received two cycles of capecitabine + oxaliplatin chemotherapy preoperatively, followed by two cycles of radiotherapy after a 2-week rest. Those in the combination group received PD-1 inhibitors every 3 weeks for two cycles, plus clinical management as the same as in the control group. All patients underwent surgery (total colorectal resection with ileostomy or radical intestinal tumor resection) 4-6 weeks after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy. The effect of neoadjuvant therapy, tumor markers, drug toxicity, side effects, perioperative indicators and postoperative pathology were compared between the two groups.
Results
2
Disease control rate in the combination group was significantly higher than that of the control group (
P
<0.05). The levels of carbohydrate antigen 242, carbohydrate antigen 72-4, carcinoembryonic antigen and carbohydrate antigen 199 in the combination group were sign
ificantly lower than those of the control group (
P
<0.05), and the percentage of tumor regression grades 0 and 1 was significantly higher compared to the control group. There were no significant differences in the incidence of toxic and side effects and perioperative indexes between the two groups (
P
>
0.05).
Conclusion
2
Preoperative neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy combined with PD-1 inhibitors demonstrates favorable efficacy in controlling UCRCC, reducing tumor marker levels, improving postoperative pathological outcomes, and exhibiting an acceptable safety profile.
