A long waiting time from diagnosis to treatment decreases the survival of non-small cell lung cancer patients with stage IA1: A retrospective study

Abstract: ObjectiveThe prognostic effect of delayed treatment on stage IA1 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients is still unclear. This study aimed to explore the association between the waiting time before treatment and the prognosis in stage IA1 NSCLC patients.MethodsEligible patients diagnosed with pathological stage IA1 NSCLC were included in this study. The clinical endpoints were overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS). The Kaplan-Meier method, the Log-rank test, univariable, and multivariab… Show more

“…In addition, old age was not a prognostic risk factor statistically in this study, unlike other studies [ 18 , 19 ]. The reason for this phenomenon might be that the sample size was small, and the cutoff point of age was different.…”

“…The OS of NSCLC is only about 20% according to a previous report [4]. The number of factors impacting OS is many, such as treatment approach, age, the level of lactate dehydrogenase, and the time of treatment [5][6][7][8]. Importantly, changes in treatment modalities have profoundly altered the prognostic characteristics of NSCLC patients.…”
