Doublet Chemotherapy

Background: In non -small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) elderly patients with advanced disease and without driver mutations, questions remain if they benefit from doublet chemotherapy (ChT) or single -agent ChT. Methods: A retrospective study characterizing elderly NSCLC patients with advanced disease. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS) after doublet ChT and single -agent ChT, calculated using Kaplan -Meier method and Log Rank test. Results: Forty -six patients with locally advanced or metastatic disease were treated with ChT (22 with platinum- -based doublet ChT and 24 with single -agent ChT). With a median follow -up of 26.6 months (mo.), the median OS was 8.4 mo. in doublet ChT and 7.0 mo. in single‑agent ChT, p=0.441. Conclusions: There were no statistically significant differences in survival between platinum -based doublet and monotherapy ChT in our studied population.
