Abstract

Elderly patients are often undertreated relative to younger patients in clinical practice. Pem is efficacious as a first-line, second-line, and maintenance treatment for advanced NS NSCLC. Analysis of individual trials in first-line (JMDB) and maintenance (JMEN, PARAMOUNT) settings showed comparable survival (favoring pem over comparators) and toxicity profiles of pem in elderly and nonelderly subgroups. Now, a meta-analysis is presented to give an integrated review of the impact of age on pem efficacy.
