Chemotherapy in Treating Patients With Lung Cancer
- Conditions
- Non Small Cell Lung Cancer
- Interventions
- Drug: Any platinum-based doublet chemotherapy
- Registration Number
- NCT01067794
- Lead Sponsor
- Eli Lilly and Company
- Brief Summary
This observational study was planned, with the primary objective to observe patient survival following first-line treatment of patients of Stage IIIB/IV Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) with different platinum-based doublets under routine disease management conditions. Further secondary objectives of this study are to provide insights to what extent histologic subtyping and the use of additional prognostic or predictive biomarkers are currently considered for differential therapeutic decisions under routine conditions. All of these data are critical to evaluate the factors for differential therapeutic decisions and their effect on patient outcomes in a real life setting, and they can only be obtained through observational research.
