热敏灸治疗非小细胞肺癌的中医优势分析

Analysis of TCM Advantages of Heat-Sensitive Moxibustion in the Treatment of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

摘要: 非小细胞肺癌(non-small cell lung cancer, NSCLC)是肺癌中最常见的病理类型，约占肺癌总数的80%~85%，其发病率和死亡率均居全球恶性肿瘤首位。近年来，靶向治疗与免疫治疗的快速发展显著改善了部分患者的预后，但放化疗累积毒性、靶向药物继发性耐药、晚期患者生活质量急剧下降等临床难题依然突出。热敏灸作为一种基于腧穴热敏化理论的新型灸疗技术，以“辨敏施灸”和“气至病所”为核心特征，突破了传统灸法“灸一点、暖一片”的局限，实现了灸疗的精准化与个体化。本文以NSCLC“正虚毒结”的核心病机为逻辑起点，以热敏灸的理论内涵为支撑，从精准扶正、减毒增效、免疫调节、局部深度干预及身心同调五个维度，阐释了热敏灸治疗NSCLC的中医理论优势，同时客观分析了现阶段研究的局限性与未来突破方向。热敏灸治疗NSCLC的独特价值在于，它以“温补通路”切入现代肿瘤治疗最易忽略的地带——正气的培护，在全病程维度上实现对患者的综合调护。

Abstract: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common pathological type of lung cancer, accounting for approximately 80%~85% of all cases, with the highest incidence and mortality rates among malignant tumors worldwide. Although the rapid advancement of targeted therapy and immunotherapy has significantly improved the prognosis of some patients in recent years, prominent clinical challenges persist, including cumulative toxicity of chemoradiotherapy, acquired resistance to targeted agents, and the sharp decline in quality of life among patients with advanced-stage disease. Heat-sensitive moxibustion, as a novel moxibustion technique grounded in the theory of acupoint heat-sensitization, features “acupoint differentiation-based moxibustion” and “qi arrival at the disease site” as its core characteristics, breaking through the limitation of conventional moxibustion that merely warms a localized area, thereby achieving precision and individualization in moxibustion therapy. Taking the core pathogenesis of NSCLC—“deficiency of healthy qi with accumulation of toxic pathogens”—as its logical starting point and the theoretical connotation of heat-sensitive moxibustion as its support, this paper systematically elaborates on the theoretical advantages of heat-sensitive moxibustion in treating NSCLC from five dimensions: precision support of healthy qi, toxicity reduction and efficacy enhancement, immune regulation, deep local intervention, and mind-body synergistic regulation, together with an objective assessment of current research limitations and future directions. The distinctive value of heat-sensitive moxibustion in treating NSCLC lies in its unique “warming and supplementing pathway” that addresses the most neglected dimension in modern cancer treatment—the cultivation of healthy qi—thereby achieving comprehensive holistic regulation across the entire disease trajectory.
