P3.01-73 - Talc Versus Minocycline and OK-432 Pleurodesis for Malignant Pleural Effusion. (ID 12026)
12:00 - 13:30 | Author(s): Hyogo Naoi
- Abstract
Background
Globally, talc pleurodesis is the standard treatment for malignant pleural effusion. In Japan, a combination of minocycline (MINO) and OK-432 has been commonly used for treating pleurodesis of malignant pleural effusion; however, data comparing talc and MINO + OK-432 are insuffient.
To compare the success rates and adverse events of talc and MINO + OK-432.
We retrospectively assessed 73 patients receiving pleurodesis for malignant pleural effusion (lung cancer, 60; malignant mesothelioma, 3; others, 10) for the first time between January 2010 and January 2017 at our hospital. We assessed the rates of fever, pain, after drug administration and success of pleurodesis. Moreover, we assessed the difference in success rates according to the pathology of the disease or chemotherapy.

Of the 73 patients, 51 were men and 22 were women, the median age was 75 years (range 47-98). The rate of fever was significantly low in the talc group, although no statistical difference was observed in the success rate (talc, 75.9%, MINO + OK-432, 85.1%), period of drainage tube insertion (3.2 and 3.6 days) and the rate of pain (30% and 50%). No statistical difference according to the pathology of the disease or chemotherapy was observed.

Thus, we can perform pleurodesis in patients with talc less invasively than with MINO + OK-432.
