Brief Summary

Older patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) often die from other causes than lung cancer due to age-related comorbidities. This national randomized study will include 130 patients throughout 5 Danish cancer centres and investigate if a comprehensive geriatric intervention (CGA) when added upfront to SBRT for patients with localized NSCLC will have an impact on quality of life (QoL), overall survival, physical functionality and unplanned hospital admissions. If an upfront CGA improves patients' general health status, this study could lead to implementation of a CGA in standard clinical practice as well as further research on older patients receiving radiotherapy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Quality of Life (EQ-5D)

    Questionnaire with 5 dimensions each with 5 (1-5) levels representing the health status of the patient and the patients self-rated health status on a scale from 0-100 (EQ VAS). The score of the 5 dimensions can be converted into a single index value 0-1 with higher values indicating poorer health status.

Patients not randomised to undergo a Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA)

Interventions

Comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) is defined as a multidisciplinary diagnostic and treatment process that identifies medical, psychosocial, and functional capabilities of an older adult in order to develop a coordinated plan to maximize overall health with aging.

Sampling MethodProbability Sample
Study Population

All patients, able to provide informed consent, aged ≥70 diagnosed with T1-3N0M0 NSCLC considered medically inoperable at a multidisciplinary setting and therefore candidates for SBRT. 130 patients will be included in a period of 24 months.

You may qualify if:

  • Patients with cytologically or histologically proven non-small cell lung cancer
  • Stage T1-3N0M0
  • ≥ 70 years old
  • In a multidisciplinary setting the patient is considered medically inoperable, too frail for operation due to age and/or comorbidity or that the patient refuse surgery and therefore candidate for SBRT.

You may not qualify if:

  • Missing histology/cytology
  • Another current malignancy
  • Higher staging at treatment planning
  • Not able to provide informed consent
  • Do not speak or understand Danish
