Abstract:
Purpose:To evaluate the effect of biological response modifiers for Ⅲ stage non-small-cell lung cancer.Methods:Fifty-nine patients were randomized into two groups.Twenty-nine patients were put into radiotherapy and chemotherapy(R+C) groups,thirty patients were into Biological response modifiers and radiotherapy chemotherapy(BRMS+R+C) groups.All patients received routine radiotherapy 2.0 Gy per day,5times a week to a total dose of 60-65 Gy,in 42-45 days.Radiation fields just covered clinical tumors.Chemotherapy consisted of cisplatin 25-30 mg/m 2 ,etoposide 50-70 mg/m 2 on days 1?2and 3 every 4 week,for squamous cell carcinoma.For adenocarcinoma,it was mitemycin 4-6 mg/m 2 on day1 and vindesine 3 mg on day1 and8,and cisplatin25-30 mg/m 2 on day1?2 and 3,every 4 weeks interferon-?(IFN-?)and interleukin-2(IL-2)were used in(BRMS+R+C)groups after the second chemotherapy was over. IFN-? was given on days 1?2?3 and IL-2 on days 2?4?6 to a total of forty-eight day.Results:The overall response rate was 51.7% and 76.6% in(R+C) and(BMRS+R+C) groups.The one.two year survival rates were 62.1% 17 3% and 83 3%,43 3% in (R+C) and (BMRS+R+C) groups respectively.Conclusions:The preliminary results from our study has shown that biological response modifiers combined with radiotherapy and chemotherapy for non -small cell lung cancer has better early response rate and survival rate.
