The interferons (IFNs) are a group of proteins produced by cells of all vertebrate animals in response to a variety of stimuli. The ability to stimulate antiviral resistance, which was the first observed property of the IFNs, is still of great interest and remains the basic criterion by which the interferons are measured 1 (even into the most recent era of radioimmunoassay systems). It is the recent clinical uses of these substances as antineoplastic agents that has brought them to the attention of clinicians and the public in general. The IFN molecules exert their effects, much as hormones do, by attaching to specific receptors on other cells of the same species. Once attached, the IFNs induce cells to undergo a series of biochemical changes that renders them resistant to further virus propagation. To be an IFN, a substance must be a protein devoid of accompanying nucleic acid or endotoxin (both of which are interferon inducers). Treated cells must undergo de novo RNA and protein synthetic activity to acquire antiviral resistance.

Purpose Multiple agents for advanced non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) have been approved in the past decade, but little is known about their use and associated spending and survival. Methods We used SEER-Medicare data for elderly patients with a new diagnosis of advanced-stage NSCLC and were treated with antineoplastic agents between 2000 and 2011 (N = 22,163). We estimated the adjusted percentage of patients who received each agent, days while on treatment, survival, and spending in the 12 months after diagnosis. Results During the 12-year study period, a marked shift in treatment occurred along with a rapid adoption of pemetrexed (39.2%), erlotinib (20.3%), and bevacizumab (18.9%) and a decline in paclitaxel (38.7%), gemcitabine (17.0%), and vinorelbine (5.7%; all P < .05). The average total days on therapy increased by 5 days (from 103 to 108 days). Patients who received bevacizumab, erlotinib, or pemetrexed had the longest treatment durations on average (approximately 146 days v 75 days for those who did not receive these agents). Approximately 44% of patients received antineoplastic agents in the last 30 days of life throughout the study period. Acute inpatient spending declined (from $29,376 to $23,731), whereas outpatient spending increased 23% (from $37,931 to $46,642). Median survival gains of 1.5 months were observed. Conclusion Considerable shifts in the treatment of advanced-stage NSCLC occurred along with modest gains in survival and total Medicare spending. More precise outcome information is needed to inform value-based treatment decisions for advanced-stage NSCLC.
