NSCLC Burden of Illness studyLuCaBIS
Trial overview
Determination of the adjuvant therapies used in routine practice in the target countries along with the durations of treatment, doses, dose reduction rates, discontinuation rates, and reasons for discontinuation.
Timeframe: Observation of retrospective data between 2009-2012.
Determinations of the proportions of patients receiving each type of adjuvant chemotherapy and proportions receiving no adjuvant chemotherapy.
Timeframe: Observation of retrospective data between 2009-2012.
Determination of the level of medical resource utilization and the direct healthcare costs of managing these patients during adjuvant treatment, prior to disease recurrence/progression, and post disease recurrence/progression.
Timeframe: Observation of retrospective data between 2009-2012.
Determination of the characteristics of patients receiving chemotherapy compared with those not receiving chemotherapy.
Timeframe: Observation of retrospective data between 2009-2012.
Determination of the proportion of patients with selected co morbidities (e.g., chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [COPD], cardiovascular disease, asthma).
Timeframe: Observation of retrospective data between 2009-2012.
Evaluation of the national cost-of-illness estimates for France, Germany, and the UK.
Timeframe: Observation of retrospective data between 2009-2012.
Determination of indirect costs incurred.
Timeframe: Observation of retrospective data between 2009-2012.
Determination of the effect of the disease on Health related quality of life (HRQOL) based on EuroQol 5 Dimensions quality-of-life questionnaire (EQ-5D).
Timeframe: Observation of retrospective data between 2009-2012.
Estimation of overall and disease-free survival of patients with resected stage IB-IIIA NSCLC observed retrospectively.
Timeframe: Between 01 Aug 2009 and 31 July 2012.
- Patient medical records will be screened using the following criteria:
- Patients must be aged 18 years or older at the time of first presentation with clinical stage IB-IIIA NSCLC.
- Patients who underwent wedge resection.
- Patients whose resection was less than 1 calendar month before the date of screening. Patients who received adjuvant systemic treatment within a clinical trial if the type of adjuvant treatment is either unknown or is not recommended by international clinical guidelines [European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO), National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN)].
- Patients must be aged 18 years or older at the time of first presentation with clinical stage IB-IIIA NSCLC.
- Patients must have complete resection of pathologic stage IB-IIIA NSCLC at least 1 calendar month prior to the date of screening, according to the current classification recommended by the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (2009). The investigator/study site must have been the main care provider for the patient during the period of treatment or management of the patient’s NSCLC.
Patient medical records will be screened using the following criteria:
- Patients whose resection was less than 1 calendar month before the date of screening. Patients who received adjuvant systemic treatment within a clinical trial if the type of adjuvant treatment is either unknown or is not recommended by international clinical guidelines [European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO), National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN)].
- Patients who are lost to follow-up:
- Living patients who are no longer under the care of the site or can no longer be contacted.
- Deceased patients who were transferred to another NSCLC treatment centre before death. Patients with concomitant malignancies who received treatment for other cancers at any time during their treatment or follow-up for NSCLC.
Patients who underwent wedge resection.
