Why does squamous cell carcinoma still enlarge after chemotherapy?

It shows that the lesion is tolerant to the chemotherapy drug and dosage, and the initial effect is good, and after a period of time, the tumor is completely tolerant to chemotherapy, that is to say, the disease appears after the sixth chemotherapy**. In other words, chemotherapy is no longer under control.

Your description is not very detailed, so that the physician's judgment will be more or less accurate.

Roughly speaking, the efficacy evaluation of the first 4 cycles of chemotherapy belongs to PR (partial response), that is, the degree to which the tumor has shrunk by more than half.

However, after 6 cycles of chemotherapy, the disease developed PD (progression).

This illustrates two things:

One: The patient's condition has deteriorated.

Two: The original chemotherapy regimen has lost its effect.

Chemotherapy may be considered for a new regimen.

Based on the patient's age and the fact that he has completed 6 cycles of chemotherapy. Such an option can be very toxic and not necessarily ideal.

Molecularly targeted drugs are another option, but they are more expensive.

Local radiotherapy is also an option, but care should be taken that the patient does not have metastatic disease other than the lungs. In this way, radiotherapy is of greater significance.

If none of the above options are ideal, or you don't want to choose. Then treat the symptoms appropriately, and Chinese medicine will assist you.

This is the normal routine of chemotherapy. That's what chemotherapy is all about. However, Chinese herbal medicines are taken at the beginning of chemotherapy. It is entirely possible to avoid this phenomenon.

What you are talking about is **cancer,**The principle is that the operation should be exhausted first, and a certain range of the edge of the tumor should be removed, and the postoperative rate is low, and staring at the nucleus is the key! The patient should be determined whether there is still cancerous tissue after radiotherapy before digging, which may be true. It is recommended that repeat surgery or biopsy be performed if possible.

If you have been treated with chemotherapy before, and the radiotherapy has not been controlled, it means that the chemotherapy is useless, and you are still asked to continue chemotherapy, which means that there is no way to control your tumor in the hospital now. Before chemoradiotherapy, you should ask if you are exempt from chemoradiotherapy, because there are traditional Chinese medicines (not decoctions) for squamous cell carcinoma of the lung, and I don't know if you want to.

Chemotherapy drugs have many adverse effects, including joint soreness. It is recommended that you massage the joints and ask a family member to help you press it.
