About

In order to further improve the therapeutic efficacy of advanced no-squamous non-small cell lung cancer patients, improve the life cycle, this study will take the standard after treatment pemetrexed combined other anti-angiogenesis drugs to maintain as the direction, so as to provide more over the evidence for the treatment of advanced NSCLC.

Full description

In patients with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer, patients receiving pemetrexed and platinum-based chemotherapy after 4 cycles of non-progressive evaluation were treated with pemetrexed plus apatinib. Until the disease progresses, there are intolerable side effects or the patient requests to withdraw from the study. It is planned to include 20 subjects.

Dosing regimen： Apatinib 500mg po qd (If there is a 3-4 degree toxic side reaction after 14 days of administration, the dose can be lowered to 250mg qd); Pemetrexed 500 mg/m2 d1×q3w; Until the patient progresses, the toxicity is intolerable, the patient withdraws his knowledge, or the investigator judges that the medication must be discontinued.
