Introduction: With the approval of G12C inhibitors as the second line of treatment for G12C-mutated NSCLC, and the expanding research regarding targeting , it is key to understand the prognostic implication of G12C in the current first line of treatment. We compared overall survival (OS) of patients with stage IV G12C-mutated NSCLC to those with a non-G12C mutation in a first-line setting of (chemo)immunotherapy.
Methods: This nationwide population-based study used real-world data from The Netherlands Cancer Registry.
Introduction: Few data is available on whether brain metastases (BM) influence survival in patients with stage IV KRAS G12C mutated (KRAS G12C+ ) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with first-line immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) +/- chemotherapy ([chemo]-ICI).
Methods: Data was retrospectively collected from the population-based Netherlands Cancer Registry. The cumulative incidence of intracranial progression, overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS) was determined for patients with KRAS G12C+ stage IV NSCLC diagnosed January 1 - June 30, 2019, treated with first-line (chemo)-ICI.
Aim: Research shows survival disparities between Maori and non-Maori colon cancer patients, with comorbidity and cancer care being major contributing factors. We studied rectal cancer management and survival in a cohort of Maori and non-Maori patients with a newly diagnosed rectal cancer.
Methods: 194 Maori and non-Maori patients diagnosed with rectal cancer between 2006 and 2008 were identified from the New Zealand Cancer Registry.
