Abstract:
Advanced non-small cell lung cancer is one of the most difficult malignant tumors in the world. At present, chemotherapy is the most common treatment for NSCLC. However, traditional chemotherapy can kill tumor cells as well as normal cells. In order to solve this problem, metronomic chemotherapy came into being. It can inhibit tumor angiogenesis and tumor growth through a continuous high-frequency, low-dose administration. Metronomic chemotherapy can effectively control the disease progression of advanced NSCLC patients, delay their life span and improve their quality of life. Therefore, metronomic chemotherapy has become an effective treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
