Abstract:
Background and objective hTe epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) have been widely used in the treatment of the advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), especially in the adeno-carcinoma patients with activating EGFR mutations. But there is no published overview of the following treatment. hTis report through observing the efficacy, toxicity and overall survival of different treatments to the advanced NSCLC patients who had gradual progression atfer EGFR-TKIs, evaluates the inlfuence of the continued treatment and switching chemotherapy. Methods Retrospective review is conducted on 32 cases of advanced NSCLC patients who experienced treatment failure of EGFR-TKIs. One group accepted the continued treatment and the other group accepted the switching chemotherapy. Results hTe median overall survival of the continued treatment group is 36.0 months. hTe respose rate of the switching chemotherapy group is 43.75%, and clinical benefit rate (complete and partial response and stable disease) is 87.5%. The median overall survival is 15.5 months. hTe main toxicities are nausea, vomiting and hematological toxicities. Conclusion For the advanced NSCLC patients who had gradual progression atfer EGFR-TKIs, the continued treatment is one of the acceptable choices.
