Description
Summary:The aim of the study was the investigation the influence of pathomorphological prognosis factors on the results for multimodality treatment of IIIA stage of non-small cell lung cancer, as well as their use for therapeutic strategy optimization. The investigation has been carried out on 262 operated patients who being held the surgical treatment and platinum-based chemotherapy (CT). The control group consisted of 157 patients (77 – with adjuvant CT), the clinical group consisted of 105 patients, who being held the CT before and after the operation. Conducted correlation analysis (to the survival rate of operated patients) defined as a negative prognosis factors the presence of adenogenic histotype and low level of tumor differ-entiation. The positive factor for tumor respectability and patients’ survival is the high level of treatment pathomorphism (TPM), which is the proof of advisability of achievement the best effect from induction CT. Chemoresistance of the NSCLC is the feature for neoplasms with the high level of differentiation and it correlates with overexpression Her-2/neu2+/3+.
