Abstract

Aim: The aim of this systematic literature review was to
describe treatment patterns in non-metastatic NSCLC. Methods: A search was
conducted in MEDLINE and EMBASE. Eligible studies were multi-centered (>50
patients) and conducted after 2000 in North America, Europe and Asia. Results:
Twenty studies met the eligibility criteria. Based on US and Canadian studies
in the resectable population, the proportion of patients who received
neoadjuvant chemotherapy/chemoradiotherapy and adjuvant
chemotherapy/chemoradiotherapy increased with increasing stage (i.e. <3% in
stage I to about 40% in stage III; and 15% in stage I to 30% in stage III,
respectively). Within the resectable population, the breakdown between bimodal
and trimodal therapy was variable, suggesting that clinical practice is not
uniform. Conclusion: Overall, studies were heterogeneous precluding data
extrapolation across regions. Despite heterogeneity and limited evidence, this
review suggested an increase in neoadjuvant and adjuvant chemotherapy with
increasing stage, generally in line with treatment guidelines.
