On 5-7 day before chemotherapy, 400 mg celecoxib was administered twice a day orally until obvious evidence of disease progression or intolerable toxicity was found. Adverse events were recorded according to NCI-CTC criteria. The primary endpoint was overall survival （OS）. The secondary endpoints included progression-free survival （PFS）, 1-year survival rate, response rate （RR） and safety. Additionally, we detected epithelial growth factor receptor （EGFR） status including EGFR gene amplification by real-time PCR and gene mutations by DHPLC followed by sequencing. Results： The response rate was 45% （20/44）, and the disease control rate （DCR） was 59% （26/44）. The median progression-free survival time and median survival time were 6 m and 18 m, respectively. The l-year survival rate was 68%. Chemotherapy cycle numbers and best response were found to be the predictive factors for PFS by COX model analysis （P=0.023 and P=0.000, respectively）. No factor was found to affect OS. The most common toxicities included neutropenia and nausea/vomit. EGFR gene amplification was an independent prognostic factor influencing OS （P=0.0002）. Patients with EGFR mutations （exon 21） had a tendency of disease progression （P=0.041）. Conclusion： Encouraging activities of celecoxib combined with platinum-doublet chemotherapy were demonstrated in treatment-naive patients with advanced NSCLC, with good tolerances. For COX-2 IHC positive patients, positive EGFR amplification and mutation might be related to poor clinical outcomes.展开更多
