Abstract

Objective: Assessing the response results and analyzing the related factors of paclitaxel/carboplatin chemotherapy for the treatment of advanced/ metastatic squamous cell lung cancer patients at National Cancer Hospital from 01/2017 to 05/2022. Patients and method: Retrospective and prospective analysis of 65 patients with advanced/ metastatic squamous cell lung carcinoma were diagnosed and treated with paclitaxel/carboplatin regimen at National Cancer Hospital from 01/2017 to 05/2022. Results: During the treatment of first-line paclitaxel/carboplatin chemotherapy of 65 advanced/metastatic squamous cell lung cancer patients, the response rate was 38.5%; the control disease rate was 66.2%, progressive rate was 33.8%. Most of patients had improved the clinical symptoms during the treatement (accounting for 47.7%). Patients with ECOG 0 had higher response rates than one with ECOG 1, there was a significant difference with p=0,002. Conclusion: The overall response rate of first-line paclitaxel/carboplatin chemotherapy for the treatment of advanced/metastatic squamous cell lung cancer was 38.5%, the control rate was 66.2%. Patients with good performance status had higher response rate.
