Abstract
Objective: To explore the efficacy of argon-helium cryoablation (AHC) combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Methods: A retrospective study was carried out between February 2020 to June 2022 of 85 patients with advanced NSCLC admitted to Tianjin Cancer Hospital Airport Hospital. Patients were categorized into two groups based on whether they had received AHC: patients received chemotherapy treatment alone (chemotherapy group, n=41); patients received chemotherapy combined with AHC (combined group, n=44). Tumor control rate, serum tumor marker levels, quality of life, and median survival time between the two groups were compared.
Results: Tumor control rate in the combined group (86.36%) was significantly higher than that in the chemotherapy group (68.29%) (P<0.05). After treatment, the levels of serum cytokeratin 19 fragment (CYFRA21-1), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and glycoprotein antigen 125 (CA125) in the two groups were significantly lower than those before the treatment, and significantly lower in the combined group compared to the chemotherapy group (P<0.05). After the treatment, the quality of life of patients in both groups was significantly higher than before the treatment. Quality of life in the combined group was significantly higher than in the chemotherapy group (P<0.05). One year after treatment, the median survival time of the combined group (10.5 months; 95% CI: 9.775-11.225) was significantly higher than that of the chemotherapy group (9.4 months; 95% CI: 8.55-10.323) (P=0.045).
Conclusions: Compared with chemotherapy alone, conventional chemotherapy combined with AHC in the treatment of advanced NSCLC can significantly reduce the levels of serum tumor markers and improve overall treatment efficacy, quality of life and 1-year overall survival rate.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
