The efficacy and safety of weekly carboplatin (CBDCA) and gemcitabine (GEM) was evaluated as first-line chemotherapy with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
46 chemotherapy-naive patients with measurable NSCLC were enrolled. Patients underwent a combination chemotherapy of GEM 1,000 mg/m2 plus CBDCA at an area under the curve of 2 on days 1 and 8 every 3 weeks.
Response rate was 30% (14/46; 95% confidence interval: 17.7-45.8%). The median number of treatment cycles was 3 (range 1-2). Time to progressive disease was 19.4 weeks and the median survival was 46.3 weeks. The 1-year survival rate was 46.9%. The major toxicity was hematotoxicity: grade 3 or 4 neutropenia (58.7%) and thrombocytopenia (45.7%). There were no other severe toxicities.
Weekly chemotherapy with CBDCA plus GEM is a well-tolerated and promising regimen as first-line treatment of advanced NSCLC.
每周卡铂(CBDCA)联合吉西他滨(GEM)作为一线治疗晚期非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)的疗效和安全性已得到评估。
46 例初治的可测量 NSCLC 患者入组。患者接受吉西他滨 1000mg/m2 联合 CBDCA 曲线下面积 2,于第 1 和第 8 天,每 3 周 1 次的联合化疗。
有效率为 30%(14/46;95%置信区间:17.7-45.8%)。中位治疗周期数为 3(范围 1-2)。疾病进展时间为 19.4 周,中位总生存期为 46.3 周。1 年生存率为 46.9%。主要毒性为血液学毒性:3 或 4 级中性粒细胞减少(58.7%)和血小板减少(45.7%)。无其他严重毒性。
每周用 CBDCA 联合 GEM 化疗作为晚期 NSCLC 的一线治疗方案是一种耐受良好且有前途的方案。
