Abstract

非小细胞肺癌(non-small cell lung cancer, NSCLC)约占肺癌的85%,5年总生存率小于15%-19%,且80%以上的肺癌患者明确诊断时属于中晚期(IIIb期-IV期),以化疗为主的综合治疗是目前无驱动基因突变的晚期NSCLC的主要治疗方式。以培美曲塞为基础的含铂两药方案及培美曲塞单药方案,分别是一线主要指南推荐方案及二线可选择方案,而三线及后线治疗无循证医学依据,根据患者既往用药情况选择后线治疗方案是临床常用的重要方法。培美曲塞是高效低毒的多靶点化疗药物,晚期NSCLC再挑战应用培美曲塞方案是一种合理的选择。本文报道1例三次挑战使用培美曲塞基础方案治疗晚期NSCLC有效的个案病例并做相关文献复习。

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for about 85% of lung cancer, with a 5-year survival rate of less than 15%-19%, and more than 80% of the patients with lung cancer have progressed to advanced stage (Stage IIIb-IV) when they are clearly diagnosed. The comprehensive treatment mainly based on chemotherapy as the primary form is now considered as the major therapy method for advanced NSCLC without actionable driver gene mutations. Pemetrexed plus platinum doublet as well as single-agent pemetrexed are respectively the first-line major regimens recommended by guidelines and the second-line optional regimens. Yet the third-line treatment or beyond in advanced NSCLC is not evidence-based but conducted based on patients’ previous medications, which is one of the most commonly used clinical methods. As pemetrexed is a multi-target chemotherapy drug with high efficiency but low toxicity, pemetrexed re-challenge strategy in advanced NSCLC is also a reasonable choice. We report one effective individual case that adopted pemetrexed re-challenge strategy in advanced NSCLC for three times, and at the same time conduct the relevant literature review.
