目的 探讨血清乳酸脱氢酶(LDH)在中晚期肝癌患者接受靶向联合免疫治疗后的预后预测价值。方法 选取2022年1月—2024年8月在莆田学院附属医院肿瘤内科经病理和影像学检查确诊的中晚期肝癌患者作为研究对象。从医院的电子病历系统中收集患者的基线资料,随访截止2025年8月,并记录随访结果,包括患者的疾病缓解情况和死亡情况,以及无疾病进展生存期(PFS)、总生存期(OS)。采用Kaplan-Meier方法绘制不同基线LDH水平患者的OS生存曲线,并通过Log-rank检验比较生存曲线。同时,运用多因素Cox比例风险回归分析探讨影响中晚期肝癌患者在接受靶向联合免疫治疗后OS的相关因素。结果 结果显示,在50例肝癌患者中,基线LDH低于200 U/L的有15例,而高于200 U/L的有35例。与基线LDH<200 U/L组相比,基线 LDH≥200 U/L患者PFS、OS更短,差异均有统计学意义(χ2分别为5.51、15.6,P值分别为0.019、0.017)。治疗8周后,与LDH降低患者相比,LDH升高患者OS更短,差异有统计学意义(χ2=13.2,P=0.04)。多因素Cox比例风险回归分析结果表明,基线LDH水平超过200 U/L是中晚期肝癌患者接受靶向联合免疫治疗后OS的影响因素[P=0.035,HR(95%CI)=5.03(1.12,22.54)]。结论 基线LDH水平较低的患者表现出更好的OS。基线LDH水平可以作为预测中晚期肝癌患者在接受靶向联合免疫治疗时预后的指标。
Objective To evaluate the prognostic significance of serum lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)levels in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)undergoing targeted therapy combined immunotherapy.Methods Patients diagnosed with advanced HCC were selected in Putian College Affiliated Hospital from January 2022 to August 2024,diagnosed with pathological and imaging examinations results.Patient baseline data were collected from the hospital’s electronic medical records,with follow-up extending until August 2025.We documented outcomes such as disease response and mortality,along with progression-free survival(PFS)and overall survival(OS).Kaplan-Meier survival curves were constructed based on baseline LDH levels,and the Log-rank test was employed for comparison.Additionally,multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was conducted to identify factors influencing OS in patients receiving targeted therapy combined immunotherapy.Results Among the 50 patients,15 had baseline LDH levels below 200 U/L,while 35 had levels above.Patients with baseline LDH≥200 U/L had significantly shorter PFS and OS than those with baseline LDH <200 U/L(χ2=5.51 and 15.6 for PFS and OS,respectively;P=0.019 and 0.017,respectively).After 8 weeks of treatment,patients with increased LDH had significantly shorter OS compared with patients with decreased LDH(χ2=13.2,P=0.04).Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis indicated that a baseline LDH level exceeding 200 U/L is an independent prognostic factor for OS in patients with intermediate to advanced HCC receiving targeted therapy combined with immunotherapy(P=0.035,HR 5.03[1.12,22.54]).Conclusions Patients with lower baseline LDH levels demonstrated better OS,suggesting that baseline LDH can serve as an important prognostic indicator for advanced HCC patients undergoing targeted combined immunotherapy.
