Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression of ERCC1 in smoking patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) and its relationship with clinical features and prognosis.Methods The expression of ERCC1 was detected in 96 patients with advanced NSCLC by PCR assay.The clinicopathologic factors, treatment effect and survival time were observed.Results The expression of ERCC1 was related to smoking index(P=0.029), but it was not related to other clinicopathological factors.The patients with low expression of ERCC1 had better response rate and median survival time when compared to those with high expression patients.The difference was statistically significant(P=0.001,P<0.01).Conclusion ERCC1 expression is associated with smoking index and the patients with low expression of ERCC1 shows higher chemotherapy efficiency and longer median survival than patients with high expression, which indicates that detection of ERCC1 may be a useful parameter in evaluating the therapeutic effect and prognosis of smoking patients with advanced NSCLC.
