Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether the Xuanyin Ning Formula combined with intrapleural injection of bevacizumab via chest tube drainage is effective in treating malignant pleural effusion. It will also evaluate the safety of this combination therapy. The main questions it aims to answer include:

Does the Xuanyin Ning Formula combined with intrapleural injection of bevacizumab via chest tube drainage improve the objective response rate (ORR) of pleural effusion in patients with malignant pleural effusion? Does this combination therapy affect the duration of response (DoR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), degree of dyspnea, quality of life, and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) pattern/syndrome evaluation in patients with malignant pleural effusion?

Participants will:

Receive intrapleural injection of bevacizumab via chest tube drainage, and take either Xuanyin Ning Formula or placebo granules daily for 8 weeks.

Undergo ultrasound assessment of pleural effusion at 2, 4, 8, and 12 weeks after the first intrapleural injection during closed chest drainage, followed by ultrasound assessments every 3 months (±7 days) until pleural effusion progression.

Conditions

  • Malignant Pleural Effusions (Mpe)

Interventions

OTHER

Treatment with Xuanyin Ning Formula combined with intrapleural injection of bevacizumab via chest tube drainage

After chest tube drainage, bevacizumab 300 mg per dose, dissolved in 50 ml of normal saline, is injected intrapleurally. The injection may be repeated after 2 weeks depending on the control of pleural effusion. Xuanyin Ning is taken as 2 sachets per day, one sachet dissolved in water and taken orally in the morning and one in the evening. Each treatment cycle is 4 weeks, and at least 2 cycles are required.
