Purpose:
We aimed to evaluate whether the addition of pemetrexed is effective in improving progression-free survival (PFS) in epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)–mutated patients with or without concomitant alterations.
Materials and Methods:
This multicenter clinical trial was conducted in China from June 15, 2018, to May 31, 2019. A total of 92 non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients harboring EGFR-sensitive mutations were included and divided into concomitant and non-concomitant groups. Patients in each group were randomly treated with EGFR–tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) monotherapy or EGFR-TKI combined with pemetrexed in a ratio of 1:1. PFS was recorded as the primary endpoint.
Results:
The overall median PFS of this cohort was 10.1 months. There were no significant differences in PFS between patients with and without concomitant and between patients received TKI monotherapy and TKI combined with pemetrexed (p=0.210 and p=0.085, respectively). Stratification analysis indicated that patients received TKI monotherapy had a significantly longer PFS in non-concomitant group than that in concomitant group (p=0.002). In concomitant group, patients received TKI combined with pemetrexed had a significantly longer PFS than patients received TKI monotherapy (p=0.013). Molecular dynamic analysis showed rapidly emerging EGFR T790M in patients received TKI monotherapy. EGFR mutation abundance decreased in patients received TKI combined chemotherapy, which supports better efficacy for a TKI combined chemotherapy as compared to TKI monotherapy. A good correlation between therapeutic efficacy and a change in circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) status was found in 66% of patients, supporting the guiding role of ctDNA minimal residual disease (MRD) in NSCLC treatment.
Conclusion
EGFR-TKI monotherapy is applicable to EGFR-sensitive patients without concomitant alterations, while a TKI combined chemotherapy is applicable to EGFR-sensitive patients with concomitant alterations. CtDNA MRD may be a potential biomarker for predicting therapeutic efficacy.

Objective To find out the current situation and related factors of perioperative pain management for the patients with fracture among the top three hospitals in our region.Methods A general information questionnaire was made,to survey the the status and the influencing factors of top hospital nursing work of fractures patients with perioperative pain management.The researchers label the questionnaire with the method of digital label,and the data collected are kept secret,and the statistical method is used to evaluate it.Finally,the conclusion is drawn.Results The working life of the nursing staff,nursing education,nursing staff after underwent fracture perioperative pain knowledge of continuing education is the mainly factors to affect patients surfing with fracture,perioperative pain management cycle of practice the three most important factors.Conclusion Three tertiary hospitals in the area fracture nursing of pain management need to be strengthened.we strengthen fractures patients with perioperative pain management cycle practice by training of clinical nursing staff.
