OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combination of camrelizumab and apatinib in the treatment of liver cancer and to furnish clinical recommendations for pharmacological interventions.

METHODS: PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and the Cochrane Library were scrutinized for research publications from their inception to 22 December 2023. Bibliographic perusal and data procurement were executed. The quality of the included studies was evaluated employing the MINORS tool. Meta-analysis was conducted utilizing Stata 15.0 software.

RESULTS: A total of 10 studies involving 849 patients were included in the meta-analysis. The study revealed that the objective response rate (ORR) of the combined therapy was 28% (95% CI: 23%-34%), the disease control rate (DCR) was 69% (95% CI: 64%-73%), the median progression-free survival (mPFS) was 5.87 months (95% CI: 4.96-6.78), the median overall survival (mOS) was 19.35 months (95% CI: 17.53-21.17), the incidence of any grade adverse events was 90% (95% CI: 85%-95%), and the occurrence of grade 3 or higher adverse events was 49% (95% CI: 27%-71%).

CONCLUSION: The combination of camrelizumab and apatinib exhibits commendable effectiveness in the management of liver cancer; nevertheless, vigilance should be exercised concerning potential adverse reactions in clinical applications to enhance the safety of pharmacological interventions.
