The role of vascular targeting therapy combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CRT) has produced many inconsistent results in locally advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), especially in lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC). Lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] may be critical in the development of tumor angiogenesis, and its levels are individualized and determined genetically. This study aimed to determine whether Lp(a) is correlated with effects of recombinant human endostatin (Endostar) combined with concurrent CRT for locally advanced LSCC.
