Research summary
This is a non-interventional study with the goal to describe treatment patterns for metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer(mNSCLC).
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common type of lung cancer, accounting for 80% to 85% of all lung cancer diagnoses. Approximately 40% of newly diagnosed NSCLC patients have stage IV disease. The 5-year survival rate for patients diagnosed with NSCLC is 24%. Approximately 1% to 8% of patients with NSCLC harbour a BRAF-mutation. The most common BRAF mutation, the V600E, is observed in 1-2% of lung adenocarcinomas.
This study will describe the treatment patterns in clinical practice in adult patients with mNSCLC with a BRAF V600E mutation (specific gene mutation) and assess Real-World Progression-Free Survival (rwPFS) and Overall Survival (OS) as well as safety of each treatment
