Abstract Background Some research found that elevated plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) concentrations and poor prognosis are associated in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, more studies need to be carried out to verify this conclusion. Therefore, this study investigated the relationship between cfDNA concentration and treatment outcomes including prognosis in patients with advanced NSCLC. Methods We retrospectively collected medical records and cfDNA data from 160 patients with advanced NSCLC. Progression-free survival (PFS) were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method and were compared between groups using the log rank test. Cox regression analysis was used for estimating the independent predictors of PFS. And we used logistic regression to evaluate the relationship between baseline biomarkers and efficacy. In our study, BT1 cfDNA, BT2 cfDNA, and BT3 cfDNA were defined as cfDNA concentration before the first treatment (baseline cfDNA concentration), cfDNA concentration before the second treatment, and cfDNA concentration before the third treatment, respectively. Results Patients with low cfDNA (BT1 cfDNA |
