Abstract

In the last years, tumor genomic testing has drastically changed the prognosis of patients especially in those treated for an advanced/metastatic nonsquamous non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Lung cancer is associated with older age. However considering the heterogeneity of this population it remains unclear whether older patients are screened in the same proportion as younger patients. This study aims to compare the proportion of molecular testing performed in advanced or metastatic nonsquamous NSCLC at diagnosis between patients aged ≥ 70 years old, and their younger counterparts.
