SURVIVAL STUDY AND SOME FACTORS AFFECTING IN OLD PATIENTS WITH ADVANCED NON SMALL CELL LUNG CANCER TREATED BY THE FIRST MOLECULAR TARGETED AGENT
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objectives: To study the survival and some factors influencing on the survival in old patients with advanced non small cell lung cancer treated by the fisrt molecular targeted agent. Patients and method: A retrospective study. The patient diagnosed adenocarcinoma non small cell lung cancer stage IV, age > 60 years, EGFR mutations (exon 19 deletion mutation or L858R) at Vietnam National Cancer Hospital, from March 2017 to March 2022 treat with the first molecular targeted agent. Results: 97 patients with the overall response rate were 66%, disease control rate were 85.6%. Median progression free survival was 11.6 ± 4.8 months, median overall survival was 25.7 ± 4.9 months. Brain metastasis significantly related the overall survival. Conclusion: Gefitinib or Erlotinib prolonging survival in old patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer EGFR mutations positive.
