Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the curative effect of chemotherapy combined with radiotherapy for limited-stage small cell lung cancer(LD-SCLC).Methods 34 cases of patients with LD-SCLC were rand- mized into interdigitating chemoradiotherapy group and sequential chemoradiotherapy group.All patients re- ceived four to six cycles of alternating CE(C:carboplatin 300 mg/m~2 d_1;E:etoposide100 mg d_(1~5)and CAP(C: cyclophosphamide 600 mg/m~2 d_(1,8);A:adriamycin 40 mg/m~2 d_1;P:cisplatin 50 mg d_(3~5)chemotherapy,three weeks for a cycle.All patients also received thoracic radiotherapy with conventional fraction,2.0 Gy per frac- tion,five fractions per week.The total dose was 60 Gy.Results In interdigitating chemoradiotherapy group, CR was 64.7%,PR was 29.4%,NR was 5.9% and PD was 0 after chemo-radiation therapy.In sequential chemoradiotherapy group,CR was 23.5%,PR was 52.9%,NR was 23.5% and PD was 0 after chemothera- py,and CR was 58.8%,PR was 35.3%,NR was 5.9% and PD was 0 after radiotherapy.Conclusion The therapeutic effect of chemotherapy combined with radiotherapy for LD-SCLC was satisying.There was no sig- nificant difference in the effect between the two groups.
