  • Research summary

    - Study Background and Rationale: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a life-
    threatening disease, with a heterogeneous profile depending primarily on which genes are mutated and stage of diagnosis. Although patients bearing specific mutations (e.g. EGFR, ALK, BRAF, etc.) have been well studied and have the option of receiving targeted therapies, real-world treated patients bearing the KRAS G12c mutations have not been sufficiently characterized and documented in terms of both their clinical profile and their HRQoL.

    Study Population or Data Resource: Primary collection of PRO data among locally advanced and unresectable or metastatic NSCLC patients with KRAS mutated (G12c or other mutation) or KRAS wildtype tumors who are not on targeted therapies in the index (i.e. 2nd [2L] or 3rd line and beyond [3L+]) line.

    - Research Question and Objective(s):
    - Primary: To describe real-world health-related quality of life (HRQoL) data for
    locally advanced and unresectable or metastatic NSCLC patients on systemic therapies
    with KRAS-mutated (G12C or other KRAS mutation) or KRAS wildtype tumors based on
    established PRO tools
    - Secondary: To describe sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of locally
    advanced and unresectable or metastatic NSCLC patients on systemic therapies with
    KRAS-mutated (G12C or other KRAS mutation) or KRAS wildtype tumors
    - Exploratory: To identify the factors (demographics, disease and treatment
    characteristics and outcomes) correlating positively or negatively
