Short description of the study population

Adults aged 18 years or older diagnosed with non-small cell cancer (NSCLC) identified from the Danish registries between 1 January 2018 to 30 June 2020.
Inclusion criteria:

- Diagnosed with incident locally advanced (Stage IIIB/C) or metastatic (Stage IV) NSCLC between 1 January 2018 to 30 June 2020.
Exclusion criteria:
- Patients who immigrated to Denmark less than one year before NSCLC diagnosis
- Patients initially diagnosed with Stage I-IIIa NSCLC and progressed to advanced NSCLC during the study period will be excluded

Study design details

Main study objective

The main objective of the study is to estimate overall survival (OS) of patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC

Outcomes

Overall survival (OS), • Proportion of patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC who are tested for KRAS • KRAS G12C mutation status • Demographics, clinical characteristics, tumor characteristics, treatment history (eg, line of therapy (LOT), type of treatment and time-to-next treatment (TTNT) and genetic mutation profile.

Data analysis plan

There are no formal hypotheses for the study. Descriptive analyses will be performed. To describe time-to-event (OS and TTNT), Kaplan-Meier (KM) curves will be plotted, and KM estimates will be calculated. For survival objectives, analyses will be performed by line of treatment (LOT) and type of therapy.
