Objective To make an individulized treatment plan for a patient with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Methods After clinical problems were put forward, evidence was collected from http://www. nccn.org. The Cochrane Library (Issue 4, 2008), Medline (PubMed 1990. 1-2008.11) and CHKD periodical database were searched.
Results A total of 21 RCTs, 5 systematic reviews and 13 CT phase Ⅲ trials were identified. A rational treatment plan was made upon a serious evaluation of the data. After nine monthes of follow-up, the plan was proved optimal.
Conclusion For locally advanced NSCLC patients, an individulized treatment plan made by evidence-based methods not only can inprove the treatment efficacy but also can lead both of doctors and patients to assume the indeterminateness of medicine.
