An update in cancer chemotherapy that deals with the various therapies of lung cancer is described. At present, the stage of the disease and cell type are the major factors that determine the treatment. Important differences in the biological behavior and response to treatment exist between small cell and non-small cell cancers. The small cell type is sensitive to many chemotherapeutic agents. Differences in response to chemotherapy and survival have been less among the non-small cell types.The treatment of non-small cell carcinomas including squamous cell, large cell, and adenocarcinoma are reviewed in Part I of this paper. Small cell lung cancer will be described in Part II, which will be published in a future issue of the journal.
本文介绍了癌症化疗的最新进展,涉及肺癌的各种治疗方法。目前,疾病阶段和细胞类型是决定治疗方案的主要因素。小细胞癌和非小细胞癌在生物学行为和对治疗的反应方面存在重要差异。小细胞类型对许多化疗药物敏感。非小细胞类型之间在化疗反应和生存率方面的差异较小。本文第一部分回顾了包括鳞状细胞癌、大细胞癌和腺癌在内的非小细胞癌的治疗。小细胞肺癌将在第二部分进行描述,该部分将发表在该期刊的未来一期。
