| Abstract | Background First-line chemotherapy combined with bevacizumab is one of the standard treatment modes for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Thoracic radiotherapy (TRT) can provide significant local control and survival benefits to patients during the treatment of advanced NSCLC. However, the safety of adding TRT has always been controversial, especially because of the occurrence of radiation pneumonia (RP) during bevacizumab treatment. Therefore, in this study, we used an expanded sample size to evaluate the incidence of RP when using bevacizumab in combination with TRT. Patients and methods Using an institutional query system, all medical records of patients with NSCLC who received TRT during first-line chemotherapy combined with bevacizumab from 2017 to 2020 at Shandong Cancer Hospital and Institute were reviewed. RP was diagnosed via computed tomography and was classified according to the RTOG toxicity scoring system. The risk factors for RP were identified using univariate and multivariate analyses. The Kaplan–Meier method was used to calculate progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Results Ultimately, 119 patients were included. Thirty-eight (31.9%) patients developed Grade ≥ 2 RP, of whom 27 (68.1%) had Grade 2 RP and 11 (9.2%) had Grade 3 RP. No patients developed Grade 4 or 5 RP. The median time for RP occurrence was 2.7 months (range 1.2–5.4 months). In univariate analysis, male, age, KPS score, V20 > 16.9%, V5 > 33.6%, PTV (planning target volume)-dose > 57.2 Gy, and PTV-volume > 183.85 cm3 were correlated with the occurrence of RP. In multivariate analysis, male, V20 > 16.9%, and PTV-volume > 183.85 cm3 were identified as independent predictors of RP occurrence. The mPFS of all patients was 14.27 (95% CI, 13.1–16.1) months. The one-year and two-year PFS rates were 64.9% and 20.1%, respectively. The mOS of all patients was 37.09 (95% CI, 33.8–42.0) months. The one-year survival rate of all patients was 95%, and the two-year survival rate was 71.4%. Conclusions The incidence of Grade ≥ 2 RP in NSCLC patients who received both bevacizumab and TRT was 31.9%. Restricting factors such as V20 and PTV will help reduce the risk of RP in these patients. For patients who receive both bevacizumab and TRT, caution should be exercised when increasing TRT, and treatment strategies should be optimized to reduce the incidence of RP. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
