摘要： The aim of this study was to assess the comparative efficacy and safety of polysaccharides from Auricularia auricula (Huaier) for patients with gastrointestinal cancers (GICs) through a systematic review and network meta-analysis. We performed a network meta-analysis to identify evidence from clinical trials. We searched databases for publications up to February 2018. The prespecified primary efficacy outcomes were clinical therapeutic effects, which included the treatment response rate, 0.5-year overall survival rate, 1-year overall survival rate, 2-year overall survival rate, ICPS improved rate and AFP decreased rate. The safety outcomes were the side effects of Huaier. The secondary efficacy outcome was immune function. Subgroup analyses and meta regression were performed according to the various cancer types in all of the efficacy and safety outcomes. The study is registered with PROSPERO (CRD42018086481). A total of 33 trials, involving 2884 patients and 10 treatment arms, were eligible. Huaier significantly increased the treatment response rate (2.48, 1.83-3.35) and survival rate (0.5-year, 1-year and 2-year) and improved immune function without increasing the incidence of adverse effects. Significant efficacy was observed in most subgroups. Network meta-analysis revealed that Huaier was very suitable for combination therapy with TACE and I-125 particle implantation. Similarly, Huaier also had a good adjuvant therapeutic effect on enhancing platinum (L-OHP and DDP) and adriamycin (ADM). Huaier offers clear advantages for patients with GICs. Moreover, patients should be encouraged to accept Huaier treatment, especially HCC patients undergoing combination therapy with TACE and I-125 particle implantation.
