Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults in France with stage III or IV metastatic NSCLC or SCLC who have survived at least three years since diagnosis, are not on cytotoxic chemotherapy, have French-language comprehension, and are covered by French national or third-party health insurance.

Probably not a fit

Patients currently receiving cytotoxic chemotherapy, those with insufficient French comprehension, those under legal guardianship, or those unable to complete follow-up are excluded and unlikely to benefit from the study's findings.

What this trial studies

This is a prospective observational follow-up of adults in France who have lived three or more years after a diagnosis of metastatic NSCLC or SCLC and are not receiving cytotoxic chemotherapy. Participants complete standardized questionnaires (HAD, QLQ-LC13, AMU) at inclusion, at 6 and 12 months, and then annually up to five years while clinical data are collected during routine visits. The study will record treatment history, new medical conditions (including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and second cancers), socioeconomic impacts, and return-to-work outcomes. Data are collected at participating French centers to characterize long-term responder needs and inform survivorship care.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the project could identify unmet medical and social needs and guide better follow-up, supportive care, and return-to-work programs for long-term metastatic lung cancer survivors.

How similar studies have gone: There is some survivorship research, but few studies have specifically focused on long-term responders to metastatic lung cancer, so this addresses a relatively under-studied area.
