Summary
Lung cancer patients with poor late prognosis should receive adjuvant chemotherapy. Its application in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is only justified in clinical studies, since there is no evidence of its efficacy. In small cell lung cancer (SCLC) chemotherapy is supplemented by local therapy regimens like radiotherapy and/or surgery. At present clinical studies are examining whether chemotherapy should be applied before or after surgical treatment.
Zusammenfassung
Die schlechte Spätprognose der Patienten mit Bronchialkarzinomen spricht für den Einsatz einer adjuvanten Chemotherapie. Wegen ihrer nicht bewiesenen Wirkung ist sie beim nicht-kleinzelligen Bronchialkarzinom gegenwärtig jedoch nur innerhalb klinischer Studien gerechtfertigt. Beim kleinzelligen Bronchialkarzinom dominiert die Chemotherapie. Sie wird durch lokale Therapieverfahren wie die Radiotherapie und/oder die Operation ergänzt. In klinischen Studien wird gegenwärtig geprüft, ob die Chemotherapie beim kleinzelligen Bronchialkarzinom der Operation vorzuschalten ist oder ihr besser nachfolgen sollte.
