Question

A 45-year-old male patient has undergone 6 rounds of lung cancer chemotherapy. After the treatment is completed, is it necessary to continue monitoring?

Answer

Lung cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors, with treatment methods including surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy. Depending on the pathological stage results after surgery, appropriate treatment plans should be adopted for individual cases. After chemotherapy ends, if the physical condition permits, consider undergoing genetic testing to try targeted therapy. Active cooperation with treatment can help extend survival time.
