Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Rate of patients with oral vinorelbine dose increase from ≤60 to ≥80 mg/m² during the course of the study8 weeks of treatment

The outcome will be calculated together with its negative (i.e. the rate of patients without such dose increase). Reasons for increasing and for not increasing the dose will be analyzed.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Body surface areaBaseline and 8 weeks of treatment

Body surface area \[m\^2\] at baseline and changes during the study

ECOG performance statusBaseline and 8 weeks of treatment

ECOG performance status \[grades 0-5\] at baseline and changes during the study

Treatment regimenBaseline

Frequency analysis of planned treatment regimens (monotherapy, combination, combination compounds) at baseline. Reasons for choosing the treatment regimen will be analyzed.

Treatment changes8 weeks of treatment

Frequency analysis of dose changes and of the underlying reasons

Body weightBaseline and 8 weeks of treatment

Body weight \[kg\] at baseline and changes during the study

Relationships between oral vinorelbine dose increases and patient and disease characteristicsBaseline and 8 weeks of treatment

Generalized linear mixed model with the variable "dose increase" as binary response variable

Patient's quality of lifeBaseline and 8 weeks of treatment

Evaluation of the patient's quality of life \[Short Form (SF)-12\]
