ABSTRACT
Purpose:
To evaluate the acute side effects an d efficacy of three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy(3-DCRT)combined with hype rthermia for locally advanced non-small-cell lung cancer(LANSCLC).Methods:
From Jan.2001 to April.2003,35 patients with LANSCLC we re treated with three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy(3-DCRT) combined with hyperthermia.Results:
The overall response rate(CR+PR)was 91.4%for the primar y tumor. Acute radiation esophagistis occurred in 48.6%of patients(Grades Ⅰ,Ⅱ ). Acute radiation pneumonitis was observed in 8.6% of patients (Grades Ⅰ,Ⅱ). Grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ bone marrow suppression occurred in 8.6%(3/35)of patients and Grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ myocardical injury was present in 14.3%(5/35) of patients. The median fo llow-up duration was 24(6-28) months.Conclusions:
Hyperthermia combined with 3-DCRT is well tolerate d in most patients with LANSCLC. Its early responses are milder than the convent ional radiotherapy. Remote results await futher follow-up.
