Abstract: Objective To compare and evaluate the effectiveness and cost utility of vinorelbine versus gemcitabine combined with cisplatin of advanced non-small cell lung cancer. Methods 60 advanced patients wit NSCLC were enrolled into two groups, the effectiveness and cost utility were evaluated after 2 cycles. Results The efficacy rate wit NP and GP were 36.6%and 40.0% respectively, An existence period wit NP and GP were 8.52 and 8.37 respectively, showing no significant difference (P>0.05) between the two groups. One year survival rate with NP and GP were 36.6%and 40.0% respectively; two year survival rate with NP and GP were 16.6%and 13.3% respectively. The ratio of cost utility with NP and GP were 1123.41and 1556.61 respectively. Conclusion The effectiveness of NP versus GP of advanced non-small cell lung cancer was similar, the cost utility of NP was more than GP.
