Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Lung cancer is frequently a disease of elderly patients. However, these patients are often treated less actively owing to a higher comorbidity rate and poor performance status. The efficacy of different treatments in elderly patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated lung cancer is still unknown. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the records of our pulmonary...
