OBJECTIVE: There is limited research on the impact of chemotherapy on the prognosis of different age group patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC). The aim of this study was to explore the impact of chemotherapy on survival prognosis of elderly patients with SCLC.
METHODS: Based on the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database, 57,460 SCLC patients between 2004 and 2015 were identified and divided into a ≤ 80 years group (n = 50,941) and a >80 years group (n = 6,519). Confounding factors were controlled by propensity score matching (PSM) analysis. Kaplan Meier (KM) analysis was performed to determine the impact of chemotherapy on overall survival (OS) and lung-cancer specific survival (LCSS) of the patients. Other variables that could affect survival of SCLC patients were also examined by COX analysis.
RESULTS: KM analysis showed that both OS and LCSS were improved in chemotherapy group compared to those in non-chemotherapy group (log rank P < 0.001) in both age groups after PSM. Cox analysis demonstrated the survival benefit of chemotherapy in both ≤ 80 years group (OS: HR 0.435; 95% CI 0.424-0.447; LCSS: HR 0.436; 95% CI 0.424-0.448) and >80 years group (OS: HR 0.424; 95% CI 0.397-0.451; LCSS: HR 0.415; 95% CI 0.389-0.444). Additionally, the following parameters had a negative impact on survival of elderly patients: male sex, tumor location in main bronchus, increased stage, bilateral tumor, no surgery or radiation, and lower median household income.
CONCLUSIONS: Elderly patients with SCLC should be encouraged to receive chemotherapy provided their general conditions permit.
