75 Background: Smoking during cancer treatment negatively impacts outcome, survival, and quality of life. Social smoking environments (SSEs) (i.e., smoking in household, peers, and spouse) influence cessation rates in non-cancer patients, but are understudied in cancer patients. Methods: Lung cancer patients, recruited from Princess Margaret Hospital (2006-2012) were given baseline and follow-up questionnaires (median of 2 years apart) evaluating changes in smoking habits and SSEs. Multivariate logistic regression and Cox-proportional hazard models evaluated the association of socio-demographics, clinicopathological and SSE factors with smoking cessation and time to quitting, respectively. Results: 721 patients completed both questionnaires. Of the 261 current smokers at diagnosis, 180 (69%) had quit by follow-up. Among 318 ex-smokers, 5 re-started smoking after diagnosis. All of the 140 never smokers remained non-smoking. Home smoke exposure (OR=9.4; 95% CI: 3.4-26.2; p=2.0 x 10E-5), spousal smoking (OR=4.7, 95% CI:1.7-12.6; p=3.0 x 10E-3) and peer smoking (OR=2.6; 95% CI:1.1-6.1; p=0.03) were each associated with reduced cessation, adjusted for a base multivariate model that included education and past history of depression. Individuals with no SSE factors had a much higher chance of quitting smoking when compared to patients with multiple areas of SSEs (0 vs. 3, OR=16.4; 95% CI: 4.1-66.7; p=7.3 x 10E-5). Similar results were seen when using time-to-quitting as the outcome (0 vs 3, OR=4.4, 95% CI=1.4-14.1, p=0.01). Time to quitting analysis found that 60% of patients with at least one SSE who did quit, did so within 6 months of diagnosis. Subgroup analysis revealed similar associations in early- and late-stage patient groups. Conclusions: SSE is a key factor in smoking cessation, where household smoke exposures reduces the chance of quitting up to 9-fold. SSEs should be a key consideration when developing smoking cessation programs in lung cancer patients, as part of quality improvement strategies. Approaches incorporating household members or spouses into the smoking cessation intervention, around the time of diagnosis, should be researched further. GL and WX are co-senior authors.

Introduction: The objectives of this study is to determine the risk factors of lung cancer were patients and investigate the quality of life of lung cancer survivors. The occupational, smoking, personal, environmental and family history of the survivors are investigated. The well-being of the survivors with physical and social norms not were also studied. Methods: Risk factors and quality of life from a sample of 50 lung cancer patients investigated through a self-administered questionnaire after getting consent from the hospital management and the patients. All the analysis has been done in SPSS 21. Results: Most of the lung cancer patients were male smokers with a strong history of smoking, and more than half of the respondents inhaled while smoking cigarettes. The significant risk factors among non-smokers are occupational history, personal history, environmental history, and family history. The impact of environmental history with smoking history is observed in lung cancer patients. The physical well-being of the patients is considerably affected by the disease and the pain in their daily activities. Conclusion: Smoking remained the leading risk factor of lung cancer patients followed by radon. However, family history is found statistically significant in the prevalence of lung cancer. Authorities should draw and implement some guiding rules to control smoking, radon, and air pollution, particularly in residential areas.
