      Background

      As part of I-O Optimise, a multinational research platform providing real-world insights into the management of lung cancers, temporal trends for initial Tx and OS are reported for pts diagnosed with NSCLC at Leeds Teaching Hospitals Trust (LTHT), hosting one of the largest integrated cancer centres in the UK.

      a9ded1e5ce5d75814730bb4caaf49419 Methods

      A retrospective cohort study using longitudinal data collected from electronic medical records at LTHT, including all adult pts diagnosed with NSCLC from Jan 2007 to Aug 2017 (follow-up to Mar 2018). Initial Tx was the 1st Tx received after diagnosis (categorised as surgery, radiotherapy or systemic anti-cancer therapy [SACT]). In this analysis, 2 diagnostic periods were compared: 2007–2012 and 2013–2017. Kaplan–Meier methods were used for OS.

      Among 3739 pts with incident NSCLC, TNM stage distribution was: I, 19.2% (this increased noticeably from 14.0% in 2007–2012 to 24.8% in 2013–2017); II, 11.6%; IIIA, 12.5%; IIIB, 9.0%; and IV, 47.7%. Overall, 29.7% had non-squamous cell carcinoma (NSQ), 21.9% had squamous cell carcinoma (SQ), 11.7% had NSCLC NOS (this decreased noticeably from 18.8% in 2007 to 8.4% in 2016) and 2.4% had other histology; 34.3% of pts were diagnosed without pathology. Tx patterns for NSQ and SQ pts are shown by stage and year of diagnosis (Table). Between 2007–2012 and 2013–2017, median OS (in months) increased noticeably in stage I–IIIA NSQ (28.7 to 50.0) and SQ pts (17.4 to 32.1), but not in stage IIIB–IV NSQ (4.1 to 5.0) or SQ pts (5.3 to 4.8)

      OS improved in stage I–IIIA pts over time, most likely due to an increased proportion diagnosed at stage I and the evolution of initial Tx through the study period. In contrast, among stage IIIB–IV pts, SACT use remains relatively low and OS outcomes remain unchanged. Future analyses will help assess the impact of new therapies, including immunotherapy and 2nd-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors, on Tx patterns and OS in the UK.
