Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy of thymic neoadjuvant chemotherapy in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer and its impact on the immune function of patients. Method: 58 patients with non-small cell lung cancer admitted to Xinye County People's Hospital from January 2017 to January 2019 were selected and randomly divided into two groups using a random number table method, with 29 patients in each group. The control group received chemotherapy with paclitaxel and carboplatin regimens, while the observation group received chemotherapy with paclitaxel and carboplatin regimens combined with thymic neotherapy. Observe the clinical efficacy and changes in immune function (CD4+, CD8+, CD4+/CD8+) of two groups. The total effective rate of the observation group was 93.1% (27/29), which was higher than 65.5% (19/29) of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant( χ 2=5.874, P<0.05). After treatment, the levels of CD4+, CD8+, CD4+/CD8+in the observation group were (52.3 ± 1.6)%, (20.5 ± 1.0)%, and (2.6 ± 0.5), respectively, which were higher than those in the control group (44.6 ± 1.7)%, (17.6 ± 1.1)%, and (2.3 ± 0.4). The differences were statistically significant (t=17.813, 10.506, and 4.515, all P<0.05). Conclusion: Thymic therapy combined with paclitaxel and carboplatin chemotherapy can significantly improve the therapeutic effect and immune function of non-small cell lung cancer patients.
