Structured PICO

Does liposomal doxorubicin-based chemotherapy improve ORR and reduce cardiotoxicity in patients with advanced breast cancer?

P
Population
Patients with advanced breast cancer (meta-analysis of 10 randomized controlled trials)
I
Intervention
Liposomal doxorubicin-based chemotherapy
O
Outcome
Objective Response Rate (ORR) and cardiotoxicitysafety

Liposomal doxorubicin-based chemotherapy improves objective response rates and reduces cardiotoxicity in advanced breast cancer.

Abstract

The results of this meta-analysis suggest that liposomal doxorubicin-based chemotherapy is associated with a significant improvement in the ORR and a significant reduction in the risk of cardiotoxicity.
