Anlotinib for refractory advanced non-small-cell lung cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

To assess the efficacy and toxicity of anlotinib for the treatment of refractory advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Methods

We systematically searched databases for randomized controlled trials on anlotinib treatment for patients with advanced NSCLC published until November 6, 2020.

In addition, we analyzed risk ratio (RR) for overall response and disease control rates (ORR and DCR, respectively) and the odds ratio (OR) for the main adverse events (AEs) using RevMan 5.3 software.

Results

This analysis included 594 patients from three clinical studies. The po
