Abstract:
Objective To compare the influence of radiotherapy,chemotherapy and radiation combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of patients with non-small cell lung cancer on the state of EGFR gene mutation.Methods 328 patients with non-small cell lung cancer were selected.On the basis of the condition of the patients,they were treated with radiation therapy,combination treatment with chemotherapy and radiation.And according to the different treatment methods,they were divided into chemotherapy group (112 cases),radiotherapy group (108 cases) and radiation combined with chemotherapy group(108 cases).Before and after treatment,the plasma EGFR mutations situation was detected and analyzed.Results Before treatment,the plasma EGFR mutation rates in the chemotherapy,radiotherapy,radiation combined with chemotherapy group were 34.82％ (39/112),31.48％ (34/108),32.41％ (35/108),which were significantly higher than 20.54％ (23/112),18.52％ (20/108),19.44％ (21/108) after treatment(x2 =5.709,4.840,4.725,all P ＜ 0.05).The frequency of the mutant EGFR gene in the patients after chemotherapy was 20.5％ (23/112),which was significantly lower than 34.8％ (39/112) before chemotherapy,the difference was statistically significant(x2 =5.709,P ＜ 0.05).After radiotherapy,the frequency of the mutant EGFR gene in the patients was 18.5 ％ (20/108),which was significantly lower than 31.5 ％ (34/108) before radiotherapy,the difference was statistically significant(x2 =4.840,P ＜ 0.05).After chemoradiation therapy,the frequency of the mutant EGFR gene in the patients was 19.4％ (21/108),which was significantly lower than 32.4％ (35/108) before chemoradiation therapy,the difference was statistically significant (x2 =4.725,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Radiotherapy,chemotherapy and radiation combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer can affect the state of EGFR gene mutation,which has significant decline.
