Standard radiotherapy but not chemotherapy impairs systemic immunity in non-small cell lung cancer
Introduction: Advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is traditionally treated with platinum-based chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Since immunotherapy holds promise for treating advanced NSCLC, we assessed the systemic effects of the traditional therapies for NSCLC on immune cell composition and function. Methods: 84 pulmonary adenocarcinoma patients, treated either with chemotherapy or radi...
متن کاملMeta-analysis of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy without radiotherapy in early stage non-small cell lung cancer
BACKGROUND Many clinical trials have confirmed that postoperative adjuvant therapy can prolong survival of non-small cell lung cancer. However, the efficiency of postoperative chemotherapy without radiotherapy is unclear, especially in early stage (stages I and II). We aimed to assess the effect of postoperative chemotherapy without radiotherapy in early stage patients. METHODS Databases and ...
متن کاملSequential platinum-based chemotherapy-thoracic radiotherapy in early stage non-small cell lung cancer.
Combined chemoradiotherapy (CTRT) is intended to reduce the risk of local regional recurrence and distant relapse in patients with early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Sequential CTRT allows full doses of each modality while avoiding the additive toxicity that occurs with concurrent therapy. This review will encompass studies in the three main settings where sequential CTRT has been ...
متن کاملVinorelbine-based chemo-radiotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer.
AIMS AND BACKGROUND Concomitant radio-chemotherapy improves survival of patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer, with a better local-regional control. METHODS AND STUDY DESIGN We report our experience with vinorelbine-based chemotherapy in neoadjuvant and radical settings in 43 patients. Regimens consisted of cisplatin plus vinorelbine in 74.4% patients and carboplatin plus ...
متن کاملThe role of radiotherapy in non-small-cell lung cancer.
Most patients who receive a diagnosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) have advanced disease and are not curable with surgery. Developments in the technology of radiation therapy (RT) have contributed to the broad utility of this treatment modality in both a curative and palliative capacity. Many patients at all stages, including those who are medically inoperable, may benefit from RT. Loc...
