NUT (nuclear protein in testis) midline carcinoma (NMC) is a rapidly progressive tumor arising from midline structures. Recent cases have reported that the poor prognosis with a median survival of 6.7 months and a 2 years overall survival of 19% due to limited treatment. Based on the effect of arotinib on inhibiting tumor growth and angiogenesis. We present one patient case treated with anlotinib and radiotherapy.
Here, we describe a 33-year old patient who complained of cough and chest pain and was diagnosed as a pulmonary NMC through CT scan, FISH and immunohistochemistry. In addition, we initially demonstrated that anlotinib combined with palliative radiotherapy could significantly prevent the tumor growth in a pulmonary NMC.
The report indicated that anlotinib combined with palliative radiotherapy could inhibit the tumor progression in a pulmonary NMC, which may provide a combined therapy to pulmonary NMC in the future.
睾丸核蛋白中线癌（NMC）是一种从中线结构发生的快速进展性肿瘤。最近的病例报告显示，由于治疗手段有限，中位生存期为 6.7 个月，总生存期为 2 年，预后较差，仅为 19%。基于阿来替尼抑制肿瘤生长和血管生成的作用。我们报告了一例接受阿来替尼和放疗治疗的患者病例。
这里，我们描述了一位 33 岁的患者，他因咳嗽和胸痛就诊，通过 CT 扫描、FISH 和免疫组织化学检查被诊断为肺 NMC。此外，我们最初证明阿来替尼联合姑息性放疗可显著抑制肺 NMC 中的肿瘤生长。
该报告表明，阿来替尼联合姑息性放疗可抑制肺 NMC 中的肿瘤进展，这可能为肺 NMC 的未来提供一种联合治疗方法。
