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.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
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.

Inclusion Criteria: * Patient over 18 years old * Patients alive after more than three years from diagnosis with stage IV or Stage III NSCLC or SCLC, not treated with cytotoxic chemotherapy at the time of inclusion (the patient may be undergoing imunotherapy, targeted therapy or surveillance). * Patients covered by the French National Health Insurance program or with thirdparty-payer health insurance Exclusion Criteria: * Difficulties for understanding French * Patients undergoing treatment with cytotoxic chemotherapy * Patients under legal guardianship, under curatorship or tutorship * Insufficient cognitive capacity to answer questions * Inability to obtain data collection (lost to follow-up, patient's refusal for data collection) * Patients refusing the collection of their data (an information sheet will be provided)
