BACKGROUND: Extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ECC) is a tumor with high invasiveness and poor outcome. The current treatments for unresected ECC are not ideal. Novel strategies are needed to improve the outcomes of patients with unresected ECC. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) plus chemotherapy is one of the promising interventions for ECC patients. We conducted this systematic review to determine the efficacy and safety of PDT plus chemotherapy in unresected ECC patients.
METHODS: Databases of PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, and Web of science were searched from inception to July 2022. Studies that compared PDT plus chemotherapy to PDT alone or chemotherapy alone in patients with unresected ECC were included. Hazard ratios (HRs) and odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were pooled for overall survival (OS) and adverse events, respectively.
RESULTS: Seven eligible studies were finally included. There are four studies on PDT plus chemotherapy vs. chemotherapy alone and three studies on PDT plus chemotherapy vs. PDT alone. The meta-analysis showed that PDT plus chemotherapy had a significantly better OS than chemotherapy or PDT alone (PDT+chemotherapy vs. chemotherapy alone, HR: 0.69, p = 0.02; PDT+chemotherapy vs. PDT alone, HR:0.36, p<0.01). The occurrence of cholangitis, abscess, and photosensitivity reaction in PDT plus chemotherapy were comparable to either chemotherapy alone or PDT alone (p>0.05).
CONCLUSION: The combination of PDT and chemotherapy can improve patient survival for unresected ECC without increased adverse events. It may be a potential standard therapy in the future management of ECC.
