  Chemotherapy for lung squamous cell carcinoma

  Phase I~ⅢA Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is mainly treated by surgery. Chemotherapy is generally used as postoperative adjuvant therapy, and it can also be used as preadjuvant neoadjuvant chemotherapy for stage IIIA patients.

   Stage Ⅴ patients are mainly treated with chemotherapy and can undergo local palliative radiotherapy. Although there are many effective chemotherapy options for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the overall efficacy is not as good as for small cell lung cancer (SCLC). The effective rate is generally between 20% and 40%. It has been reported that increasing the dose can increase the intensity to about 50%, but most of them require hematopoietic stimulating factor treatment.

  Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) chemotherapy can achieve complete remission in very few patients, so the vast majority cannot be cured by chemotherapy. Need to cooperate with other treatment methods such as surgery or radiotherapy.

  Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) can improve the survival period through radiotherapy, chemotherapy and surgical comprehensive treatment in a limited period, and chemotherapy is the mainstay in a wide period, and the prognosis is very poor.
