camrelizumab combined with apatinib in the treatment of advanced sarcomatoid carcinoma or carcinosarcoma

Conditions: PD-1 Immunotherapy; VEGFR-TKI; Sarcomatoid Carcinoma; Carcinosarcoma

Summary: this study is to explore the treatment of advanced sarcomatoid carcinoma or carcinosarcoma with carrelizumab combined with apatinib, in order to provide guidance and experience for new combined therapy in clinic.

a number of clinical studies have shown that pd-1 immunotherapy combined with anti-vascular target drugs has achieved good clinical efficacy in primary liver cancer, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, esophageal cancer and other tumors. for sarcomatoid carcinoma, which is a rare tumor with large heterogeneity, poor treatment effect and poor prognosis, clinicians are facing great confusion on how to find a good treatment regimen in clinic. the purpose of this study is to explore the treatment of advanced sarcomatoid carcinoma with pd-1 antibody camrelizumab combined with anti-vascular target drug apatinib.
