Observational Prospective Study of Quality of Life in Unresectable TNM Stage III NSCLC (OBSTINATE)

Sponsor: Groupe Francais De Pneumo-Cancerologie

Summary

OBSTINATE is an observational, national, prospective, multicentric study on Quality of life in patients with unresecable stade III non-small cell lung cancers. Locally advanced non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLCs with a Tumor, Node and Metastasis \[TNM\] stage III) patients represent approximately a third of newly discovered NSCLCs every year, and a very heterogeneous group of clinical situations. Therapies are multidisciplinary and very heterogeneous across oncology centers. Patients with locally advanced NSCLC have a high symptom burden that is known to affect their quality of life. Health-related quality of life (HR-QoL) is a specific and multidimensional type of patient-reported outcome (PRO) related to the physical, psychological and social impact of the disease and its treatment as perceived by patients. HR-QoL allows, together with data of efficacy and safety, a more complete assessment of risks and benefits of each treatment. Therefore, QoL maintenance is a valuable consideration for treatment decisions, especially in the rapidly evolving therapeutic landscape of unresectable NSCLC. The study is designed to collect PROs HR-QoL data from every new patient diagnosed with an unresectable stage III NSCLC over a period of 18 months. We also aim to describe clinical characteristics of these patients, the therapeutic strategies conducted, and outcomes in a "real-word" oncological practice.
