Résumé
This study provides insights into the treatment use and outcomes of metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients in a real-world setting prior to and after the availability of immuno-oncology (IO) regimens in the first line (1L). Metastatic NSCLC patients, who initiated systemic 1L anticancer treatment from 2014 to 2020, were identified from health records. Patients were grouped into Pre-1L IO and Post-1L IO, according to the availability of pembrolizumab 1L monotherapy at the date of initiating 1L systemic anticancer treatment. Patient characteristics, treatment patterns and outcomes were assessed by the cohort. Overall survival (OS) and real-world progression-free survival (rwPFS) were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method. The most common 1L treatment was platinum-based chemotherapy regimens in both groups (≥46%), followed by single-agent chemotherapy (27.0%) in Pre-1L IO and pembrolizumab (26.0%) in Post-1L IO. Median OS was 6.2 (95% CI 5.5-7.4) in Pre- and 8.9 months (95% CI 7.5-10.6) in Post-1L IO, while rwPFS was 3.7 (95% CI 3.3-4.2) and 4.7 months (95% CI 3.9-5.7), respectively. Even if a small proportion of patients received a 1L IO, the data showed an improved survival outcomes in the Post-1L IO group.

BACKGROUND
BACKGROUND
This study provides insights into the treatment use and outcomes of metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients in a real-world setting prior to and after the availability of immuno-oncology (IO) regimens in the first line (1L).
METHODS
METHODS
Metastatic NSCLC patients, who initiated systemic 1L anticancer treatment from 2014 to 2020, were identified from health records. Patients were grouped into Pre-1L IO and Post-1L IO, according to the availability of pembrolizumab 1L monotherapy at the date of initiating 1L systemic anticancer treatment. Patient characteristics, treatment patterns and outcomes were assessed by the cohort. Overall survival (OS) and real-world progression-free survival (rwPFS) were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method.
RESULTS
RESULTS
The most common 1L treatment was platinum-based chemotherapy regimens in both groups (≥46%), followed by single-agent chemotherapy (27.0%) in Pre-1L IO and pembrolizumab (26.0%) in Post-1L IO. Median OS was 6.2 (95% CI 5.5-7.4) in Pre- and 8.9 months (95% CI 7.5-10.6) in Post-1L IO, while rwPFS was 3.7 (95% CI 3.3-4.2) and 4.7 months (95% CI 3.9-5.7), respectively.
CONCLUSIONS
CONCLUSIONS
Even if a small proportion of patients received a 1L IO, the data showed an improved survival outcomes in the Post-1L IO group.
