negyed vonal = 4. (negyedik) vonalbeli (kemoterápiás kezelés) fourth-line (chemotherapy) Explanation: Elírás vagy rövidítés lehet. negyed -> negyedik vonal -> vonalbeli Mivel itt NHL -ről van szó, ezért ez kemoterápia. http://chemoth.com/firstline The terms “third-line therapy” and even “fourth-line therapy” are occasionally used for subsequent treatment, but “salvage therapy” is also used. Written guidelines rarely specify anything beyond second-line therapy. The same treatments can be used for subsequent treatment. “Third-line therapy” and such are used mostly in academic writing. http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/730213 The authors found that the median overall survival, which was evaluated from the first day of each chemotherapy line, decreased with each successive chemotherapy regimen. Survival with first-line treatment averaged 34.8 months (980 patients; range, 4 - 208 patients) and then decreased to 22.6 months with second-line therapy (838 patients), 14.6 months with third-line therapy (684 patients), 12.4 months for fourth-line therapy (302 patients), 9.4 months for fifth-line therapy (88 patients), and 8.2 months for 7 lines or more (45 patients). |
