Background and purpose:The effective rate of ifrst-line chemotherapy for advanced lung cancer is 30%-40%. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efifcacy and adverse effects of pemetrexed combined with carboplatin or cisplatin in the treatment of patients with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods:One hundrend and twenty-one patients with advanced non-squamous NSCLC were enrolled in this study and all of these patients had been conifrmed with pathology or cytology. Among the 121 cases, 60 cases were male and 61 were female, the median age was 59 years, adnenocarcinoma in 113 patients and large cell carcinoma in 8 patients. Combination regimen: patients received pemetrexed 500 mg/m2 on day 1 and carboplatin 300 mg/m2 or cisplatin 70 mg/m2 on day 1 by intravenous infusion, administrated every 3 weeks for 2 to 6 cycles. All patients who received 2 or more cycles could be evaluated. Disease control rate (DCR) was the primary end point; secondary end points included progression-free survival (PFS), 1-year survival rate and safety.Results:There was 1 case with complete response (CR), 44 cases achieved partial response (PR), 50 had stable disease (SD) and 26 cases had progressive disease (PD) in the overall cases. ORR and DCR were 37.2% (45/121) and 78.5% (95/121), respectively. The median PFS time was 5.2 months and 1-year survival rate was 59.0%. In pemetrexed combined with carboplatin group, the ORR and DCRwere 38.3% (23/60) and 78.3% (47/60), respectively; The median PFS was 5.1 months (95%CI: 3.8-6.4 month) and 1-year survival rate was 55.2%. The patients treated with pemetrexed plus cisplatin, the ORR and DCR were 36.1% (22/61) and 78.7% (48/61), respectively. Median PFS was 6.2 months (95%CI: 4.3-8.1 month) and 1-year survival rate was 62.5%. There were no statistical differences between carboplatin/pemetrexed and cisplatin/pemetrexed for both ORR, DCR, PFS and 1-year survival rate (P>0.05). The major adverse effects were leukopenia, neutropenia, fatigue and gastrointestinal reaction.Conclusion:Pemetrexed plus platinum chemotherapy could be considered as the ifrst-line treatment option for advanced non-squamous NSCLC patients. Pemetrexed combined with carboplatin/ cisplatin regimen has efifcacy with mild toxicity and better tolerability.

Objective:To explore the application effect of evidence-based clinical practice of enhanced recovery after surgery multiple discrepancies theory (ERAS-MDT) in perioperative nursing of patients with hepatectomy.Methods:From January to December 2018, 62 patients with hepatectomy who received perioperative care of ERAS-MDT in the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery of Ningbo First Hospital of Zhejiang Province were selected as the control group. We reviewed the implementation effect, searched the clinical practice guidelines, systematic reviews and evidence summary related to ERAS-MDT, carried out field investigation and expert consultation, summarized the obstacle factors, formulated countermeasures, and built a standardized operation mode of ERAS-MDT. From January to December 2019, a total of 66 patients with hepatectomy who received standardized ERAS-MDT perioperative nursing were selected as the observation group. The first exhaust time, defecation time, first ambulation time, first oral feeding time, hospitalization time, nutritional status and pain score were compared between the two groups.Results:The first exhaust time, defecation time, first ambulation time, first oral feeding time, hospitalization time of the observation group were earlier than those of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . The albumin level of the observation group was higher than that of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . The pain scores of the observation group on the operation day was lower than those of the control group, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:A standardized management model of ERSA-MDT based on evidence-based clinical practice exhibits positive effect on the perioperative recovery of hepatectomy patients, which can further improve the clinical outcome of patients.

Objective:To analyze the pathologic features of responses to neoadjuvant immunotherapy of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the lung.Methods:The study included 31 patients with resected lung SCC post neoadjuvant immunotherapy. All patients were recruited from the neoadjuvant anti-PD-1 (Sintilimab) phase Ⅰb clinical trial (ChiCTR-OIC-17013726). The histopathological morphology and different degrees of pathologic response to immunotherapy were evaluated basing on irPRC standard.Results:According to the percentage of residual viable tumor (% RVT), pathologic responses of complete pathologic response (cPR), major pathologic response (MPR) and non-MPR were noted in 19% ( n=6), 29% ( n=9), and 52% ( n=16) of patients respectively. In addition, extensive immune activation phenomena (immune cell infiltration, including infiltration of lymphocytes, plasma cells, foamy macrophages, lymphocyte aggregation and tertiary lymphoid structures formation) and tissue repair features (giant cells, granuloma formation, proliferative fibrosis and neovascularization) were observed in tumor regression bed. Conclusions:Neoadjuvant immunotherapy has favorable effect on lung SCC. Pathologic assessment of resected lung cancer specimens after neoadjuvant immunotherapy shows unique histopathological features consistent with its mechanism.
