ABSTRACT

The clinical effect of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) in the treatment of primary bronchial lung cancer is good. To a certain extent, TCM can control the progress of the disease and improve quality of life by the treatment of syndrome differentiation, disease-modified prescription, experience prescription, Chinese patent medicine, TCM injection, acupuncture and acupoint application, which have been combined with chemotherapy. The mechanism of TCM in the treatment of primary bronchial lung cancer mainly includes inhibition of lung cancer cell proliferation, induction of lung cancer cell apoptosis, improvement of body immunity and overcoming chemotherapy resistance.
