Methods: A total of 89 cases with advanced NSCLC was randomized into two groups: the LP group (57 patients) and the TP group (32 patients). The responses, toxicities and survivals of the two groups were compared. Results: The response rates were 40.00% and 38.71% in the LP and TP groups respectively, but no significant difference was detected between them (P>0.05). The median times to progression (TTP), median remission times, median survival times and 1-year survival rates were 18 weeks, 20 weeks, 35 weeks and 35.09% in the LP group, and 17 weeks, 18 weeks, 31 weeks and 28.15% in the TP group, respectively, and no significant differences were detected between them (P>0.05). The incidence of grades I-II peripheral neuritis in the TP group (37.50%) was significantly higher than that in the LP group (19.29%) (P<0.05). The incidence of grades I-II allergic reaction in the TP group (12.50%) was significantly higher than that in the LP group (5.26%) (P<0.05). And the incidence of grades Ⅲ-IV nausea/vomiting in the TP group (15.63%) was significantly higher than that in the LP group (5.26%) (P<0.01), too. Conclusion: The effect of LP regimen is similar to that of TP regimen, but the incidences of peripheral neuritis, allergic reaction and nausea/vomiting in LP regimen are lower than those in TP regimen. In short, LP regimen may be the first-line chemotherapy regimen of advanced NSCLC.展开更多
