e20580 Background: Lung cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide and its incidence continues to grow. Lung cancer mortality and survival rates vary markedly by race and ethnicity resulting into a public health burden that differs by population subgroups. This study determined the association of the clinical profile, pathological characteristics and mutational profile with the disease outcome of Non Small Cell Lung Cancer patients at the Benavides Cancer Institute – University of Santo Tomas Hospital from January 1, 2007 to December 31, 2011. Methods: This is a retrospective descriptive study. Medical records of all of patients diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer were included. Results: A total of 80 patients with non small cell lung cancer were treated, 78.75% (63) were adenocarcinoma and 13.75% (11) were squamous cell carcinoma. Overall 5-year survival rate was at 5%. The 1 year, 2-year, 3-year survival rates were 38.75%, 21.25% and 12.5% respectively with the mean survival time of 1.6 years. The mean survival time of patients who received adjuvant treatment was 26 months, while for metastatic patients was 18 months. Only the stage at time of diagnosis was correlated with overall survival. Age, gender, family history, smoking history, number of pack years smoking history, histologic subtype, response after first line of treatment and sites of metastases were not associated with overall survival. EGFR mutational analysis was not performed in this study since it was not the standard of care and had limited availability in low to middle income countries at the time of the study period. Conclusions: Similar to global incidence, adenocarcinoma remains the most common type of lung cancer in our center. Stage at diagnosis predicts overall survival among lung cancer patients. There is a need for molecular immunotyping to further characterize patients and response to treatment.
