Effect of Fuzheng Quxie Formula on progression⁃free survival in lung cancer patients
To retrospectively analyze the effect of Fuzheng Quxie Formula (a decoction for strengthening the body's resistance and dispelling pathogenic factors) on the progression-free survival (PFS) in lung cancer patients and to explore the factors affecting the prognosis of lung cancer.
Methods
2
Clinical data from lung cancer patients were collected, and follow-up was conducted with them. Patients were divided into a treatment group (receiving the Fuzheng Quxie Formula in addition to conventional treatment) and a control group only (receiving conventional treatment) based on the use of the Fuzheng Quxie Formula. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to compare PFS between the two groups before and after matching. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to calculate PFS rates. Univariate analysis was conducted using the log-rank test. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was then used to identify factors affecting PFS in lung cancer patients.
Results
2
①A total of 1 134 lung cancer patients data were collected in this study, with 373 cases in the control group and 761 cases in the treatment group before PSM. After PSM, both the control and treatment groups had 208 cases each. ②The average PFS time in the treatment group was significantly longer than that in the control group before and after PSM [
HR
=0.724, 95%
CI
(0.614-0.846),
P
<
0.001;
HR
=0.5, 95%
CI
(0.387-0.646),
P
<
0.001]. Specifically, stage Ⅰ patients in the treatment group had a longer average PFS time than those in the control group before and after PSM [
HR
=0.203, 95%
CI
(0.138-0.298),
P
<
0.001;
HR
=0.219, 95%
CI
(0.128-0.374),
P
<
0.001]. ③Univariate analysis results showed that gender, age, smoking history, family history, surgery, chemotherapy, cancer staging, and the Fuzheng Quxie Formula intervention were significant related factors affecting PFS in lung cancer patients (
P
<
0.05). Multivariate regression analysis results showed that younger age [
HR
=1.04, 95%
CI
(1.02-1.06),
P
<
0.001] and the Fuzheng Quxie Formula intervention [
HR
=0.97, 95%
CI
(0.14-0.36),
P
<
0.001] were independent protective factors affecting PFS in lung cancer patients, while smoking [
HR
=0.58, 95%
CI
(
1.20-2.90),
P
=0.006] and cancer staging [
HR
=0.83, 95%
CI
(0.81-1.28),
P
<
0.001] were independent risk factors affecting PFS in lung cancer patients. ④No significant adverse reactions were observed in either group during the follow-up period.
Conclusions
2
The Fuzheng Quxie Formula is a protective factor for the survival prognosis of lung cancer patients. It helps to prevent recurrence and metastasis, thereby prolonging PFS, particularly in early-stage lung cancer patients, and shows promising potential for clinical application.
