Background and objectivesDespite efforts, tumor recurrence is diagnosed in 35–40% of patients with stage III squamous cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) during the first year after treatment. The purpose of the present investigation was to determine the levels of cytokeratin-fragment 19 (CYFRA 21-1) in blood serum, the percentages of lymphocytes containing chemokine receptor 1 (CXCR1, %, lymphocytes), and the percentages of monocytes containing chemokine receptor 2 (CXCR2, %, monocytes), as well as their combined model before and after treatment for the early detection of recurrence.
