Abstract

Objective: To evaluate progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients with stage IIIB non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy at the National Lung Hospital. Methods: A retrospective and prospective study was conducted on 66 patients with stage IIIB NSCLC who underwent concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Key variables included PFS, OS, and their associations with histopathology, age groups, and performance status (PS). Kaplan-Meier analysis was used for survival estimation, and log-rank tests were performed for subgroup comparisons. Results: Median PFS was 11.8 months, and median OS was 18.2 months. The 1-year and 2-year survival rates were 64.3% and 37.2%, respectively. Subgroup analysis showed no significant differences in PFS or OS across age groups, histological types, and PS scores (p > 0.05). Conclusion: Concurrent chemoradiotherapy offers promising survival outcomes for stage IIIB NSCLC patients, with consistent efficacy across different subgroups.
