Abstract

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of different treatments in inoperable stage-Ⅲ non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) and their influence on prognosis.Methods Thirty-six cases(9 cases stage ⅢA and 27 cases stage ⅢB) were given intravenous chemotherapy and radiotherapy(group A),and other 21 cases(5 cases stage ⅢA and 16 cases stage ⅢB) were given BAI(bronchial artery infusion) combined with intravenous chemotherapy and radiotherapy(group B).Results The median time to progression in group A and group B was 12.0 and 11.75 months respectively(P=0.74).The median survival time of group A and group B was 17.96 and 18.33 months respectively(P=0.461).The one-,two-and three-years survival rates of group A and group B were 75.0%,29.1%,11.7% and 76.2%,23.8%,4.8% respectively(P0.05).Conclusion On the basis of intravenous chemotherapy and radiotherapy,BAI cannot significantly improve the long-term survival of inoperable stage-Ⅲ NSCLC.
