Objective To compare the influence of radiotherapy,chemotherapy and radiation combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of patients with non-small cell lung cancer on the state of EGFR gene mutation.Methods 328 patients with non-small cell lung cancer were selected.On the basis of the condition of the patients,they were treated with radiation therapy,combination treatment with chemotherapy and radiation.And according to the different treatment methods,they were divided into chemotherapy group (112 cases),radiotherapy group (108 cases) and radiation combined with chemotherapy group(108 cases).Before and after treatment,the plasma EGFR mutations situation was detected and analyzed.Results Before treatment,the plasma EGFR mutation rates in the chemotherapy,radiotherapy,radiation combined with chemotherapy group were 34.82% (39/112),31.48% (34/108),32.41% (35/108),which were significantly higher than 20.54% (23/112),18.52% (20/108),19.44% (21/108) after treatment(x2 =5.709,4.840,4.725,all P < 0.05).The frequency of the mutant EGFR gene in the patients after chemotherapy was 20.5% (23/112),which was significantly lower than 34.8% (39/112) before chemotherapy,the difference was statistically significant(x2 =5.709,P < 0.05).After radiotherapy,the frequency of the mutant EGFR gene in the patients was 18.5 % (20/108),which was significantly lower than 31.5 % (34/108) before radiotherapy,the difference was statistically significant(x2 =4.840,P < 0.05).After chemoradiation therapy,the frequency of the mutant EGFR gene in the patients was 19.4% (21/108),which was significantly lower than 32.4% (35/108) before chemoradiation therapy,the difference was statistically significant (x2 =4.725,P < 0.05).Conclusion Radiotherapy,chemotherapy and radiation combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer can affect the state of EGFR gene mutation,which has significant decline.

Objective To discuss the sensitization effect of celecoxib in the radiotherapy and chemotherapy of patients with esophageal cancer,and its clinical application value.Methods According to the digital table,60 patients with esophageal cancer were randomly divided into observation group and control group,30 cases in ecah group.The control group was given conventional radiation and chemotherapy,the observation group received combination with celecoxib for radiotherapy sensitization.The clinical effect was compared between the two groups.Results The total effective rate of the observation group was 46.67% (14/30),which was higher than 20.00% (6/30) of the control group,the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (x2 =4.343,P < 0.05).In the observation group,radioactive pneumonia occurred in 1 case,radioactive esophagitis in 2 cases,radioactive myocarditis in 1 case.In the control group,radioactive pneumonia occurred in 2 cases,radioactive esophagitis in 1 case,radioactive myocarditis in 2 cases,the differences between the two groups were statistically significant (x2 =0.350,0.350,0.350,all P >0.05).In the observation group,7 cases occurred nausea and vomiting,diarrhea in 1 case,bone marrow suppression in 5 cases,renal toxicity in 2 cases.In the control group,8 cases had nausea and vomiting,diarrhea happened in 2 cases,bone marrow suppression in 3 cases,renal toxicity in 1 case,there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups (x2 =0.088,0.350,0.576,0.350,all P > 0.05).Conclusion Application of celecoxib in patients with esophageal cancer during the process of radiation and chemotherapy has sensitization effect,it can promote the esophageal cancer treatment effect,without increase in adverse reactions,it is worthy of popularization and application in clinic.
