Retrospective analysis of single-agent nab-paclitaxel in patients with platinum-resistant non-small cell lung cancer.
Molecular and Clinical Oncology 2017 November
A retrospective study was conducted to investigate the efficacy and toxicity of single-agent nab-paclitaxel in 67 patients with platinum-resistant non-small cell lung cancer in Kansai Medical University Hospital from August 2013 to December 2015. Overall, 25% of patients experienced disease progression, 48% exhibited a partial response, 27% had stable disease and 0% had a complete response. The median progression-free survival (PFS) time was 4.8 months and the median overall survival time was 18.2 months. There was no statistically significant difference in PFS between patients with non-squamous carcinoma and squamous carcinoma, or between second-line use and post-second-line use. The most common severe adverse event was neutropenia, followed by interstitial lung disease, infection and fatigue. The results revealed that single agent nab-paclitaxel was associated with an acceptable level of toxicity and a favorable response. This regimen has been developed recently, thus it has not been sufficiently evaluated its toxicity and efficacy. Additional studies to evaluate these parameters in non-small cell lung cancer are warranted.
