ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of isosorbide mononitrate sustained release tables plus vinorelbine and cisplatin in patients with previously untreated advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods One hundred and ten patients with stage ⅢB-Ⅳ NSCLC were randomly assigned to group A (57 cases) and group B (53 cases) by random mumber table.Patients in group A were treated with vinorelbine 25 mg/m2 on the first and eighth day and cisplatin 25 mg/m2 on day 2-4,with transdermally applied isosorbide mononitrate sustained release tables (40 mg,daily for 8 days),and patients in group B were treated with vinorelbine and cisplatin.Response to treatment was assessed by RECIST1.1 and adverse effect was assessed by NCI-CTC(3.0).Results The response rate in group A (58.2％,32/55 patients) was significandy higher than that for patients in group B (30.8％,16/52 patients; x2 =8.120,P =0.004).Median TTP and median OS in group A were longer than those in group B (8.2 vs 5.8 months,x2 =10.684,P =0.001 ; 11.6 vs 9.0 months,x2 =11.231,P =0.001).While,patients with squamous carcinoma showed better response to chemotherapy (RR =2.438,95％ CI1.136-5.231,P =0.022).Adverse effect difference was not significant between group A and group B,except headache.The rate of grade 1 to 2 headache in group A (34.5％ ; 19 of 55 patients) was significantly higher than that in group B (3.8％ ; 2 of 52 patients; P ＜0.001).Conclusion Use of isosorbide mononitrate sustained release tables combined with vinorelbine and cisplatin may improve overall response,TTP and OS in patients with advanced stage NSCLC.
