New Gene Detection Method Helps to Assess the Risk of Death in Lung Cancer Patients

A new issue of the British medical journal The Lancet published a report saying that U.S. researchers have developed a set of genetic testing methods that can roughly determine the risk of death from lung cancer patients. After identifying patients with a higher risk of death, they can take measures. Additional chemotherapy and other means to help treat.

Researchers at the University of California and other institutions in the United States reported that they analyzed the condition and genetic information of more than 300 NSCLC patients and found that the activity of 14 genes in the patient can help predict the risk of death after treatment. .

To confirm the effectiveness of this method, the researchers then conducted confirmatory tests on more than 1,000 patients. The results showed that patients with a low risk of death were those whose genetic analysis showed a survival rate of 74% within 5 years of follow-up observations; those with genetic tests that showed moderate mortality risk had a survival rate of 57%; and those whose genetic tests showed a high risk of death. The survival rate is only 44%.

Researchers say that this genetic test can help determine if patients should receive additional chemotherapy. In the early stage of lung cancer treatment, only the method of surgical removal of the tumor is generally used for treatment. However, some patients often have hidden cancer cells in their bodies, resulting in postoperative cancer recurrence. Patients with high risk of death are mostly of this type.

For this type of patient, chemotherapy can be used to kill hidden cancer cells. However, studies have shown that for the entire patient population, the use of chemotherapy after surgery does not significantly improve survival. Because of the strong side effects of chemotherapy, those who do not need chemotherapy will also suffer. With these genetic tests, doctors can identify those patients who are at high risk of death and perform additional chemotherapy differently.
