Primary pulmonary salivary gland tumors (PSGT) constitute a rare subtype of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Currently, no established treatment guidelines exist for advanced PSGT. The efficacy of platinum-based chemotherapy for PSGT within the context of NSCLC remains uncertain. Therefore, we retrospectively collected 37 PSGT patients who underwent first-line platinum-based chemotherapy from 2010 to 2023. Survival analysis, employing the Kaplan-Meier method, and group comparisons via the log rank test were conducted. Our results show that first-line platinum-based chemotherapy demonstrates favorable efficacy and manageable safety in advanced PSGT, with the combination of Paclitaxel + Platinum emerging as a preferred option.
