ABSTRACT

Objective To compare and evaluate the clinical efficacy and side effect of vinorelbine plus gemcitabine and vinorelbine plus cisplatin combinations in advanced non-small-cell lung cancer(NSCLC). Methods 56 cases with non-treated advanced NSCLC were unrandomly divided into two groups the GN group (27patients) treated with vinorelbine plus gemcitabine, the NP group (29 patients) treated with vinorelbine plus cisplatin,1/3 weeks×2～6 cycles. Results For the GN group, the overall response rate was 37.7 %, MTTP was 5.1months,one year survival rate (1-ySR) was 40.7 %. There were no significant difference in the response rates and the survival rates for the GN group compared with the NP group (P ＞0.05); But on the side effect of toxicities, WHO grade anemia and nausea/vomiting and tiredness of the GN group was significantly milder than the NP group (P ＜ 0.05). Conclusion Vinorelbine combined Gemcitabine regimen (GN) is active and well-tolerated. It is worth to investigate GN recommended as the first line chemotherapeutic regimen for the treatment of patients with advanced NSCLC.
