Abstract:
Objective:To explore the characteristics of failure patterns of three-dimensional radiotherapy combined with first-line drug therapy for primary tumors of stage Ⅳ non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)and investigate the influence of radiotherapy-related factors.Methods:708 patients newly-diagnosed with stage Ⅳ NSCLC from March 2003 to July 2020 were selected. Chi-square test was used for univariate analysis of failure patterns. Kaplan-Meier method, Log-rank test and Cox regression model were employed for multivariate analysis. Results:The incidence of first-line treatment failure in 708 cases was 71.2%, and the incidence of treatment failure was 22.7%, 28.8%, 13.3%, and 6.4% for ≤6 months, >6-12 months, >12-24 months, and>24 months, respectively, and the median survival time was 7.2, 13.4, 22.2, and 37.6 months, which was significantly different( χ2=226.013, P<0.001). The incidence of recurrence failure(RF)was 21.3%.There was no significant difference in the incidence of RF between oligometastasis(OM)and non-oligometastasis(NOM). The incidence of DF was 66.3% and the order of incidence was brain>bone>lung>pleural cavity>liver>distant lymph nodes>adrenal gland>other sites, occurring in approximately 1/2 of AM and 1/3 of PSM cases. Metastatic status, time to treatment failure, pathological type, gender, combined treatment intensity were the independent influencing factors for predicting prognosis. Conclusions:The failure pattern of radiotherapy for primary tumors of stage Ⅳ NSCLC is different from that of first-line drug therapy, with significantly lower local failure and predominantly metastatic failure. The incidence of brain metastasis is the highest. The later time to treatment failure, the longer the overall survival(OS). OM, female, non-squamous cell carcinoma, late treatment failure, 4-6 cycles of chemotherapy over the same period ≥63 Gy are the independent prognostic factors for prolonging survival.
