Aim: To describe treatment patterns and outcomes for advanced/metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer (aNSCLC) treated with single-agent or combination ramucirumab (ramucirumab-based) and/or immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI-based) therapy. Materials & methods: Retrospective study of aNSCLC patients (n = 4054) identified in the Flatiron Health database, who received at least two treatment lines including ramucirumab- and/or ICI-based regimens between December 2014 and May 2017. Results: Median overall survival (95% CI) from aNSCLC diagnosis was 29.3 (25.5-33.0) months for patients receiving sequential ramucirumab- and ICI-based therapy (n = 245), 15.1 (12.6-18.2) months for patients receiving sequences including ramucirumab- without ICI-based therapy (n = 112), and 23.1 (21.9-24.2) months for patients receiving ICI-based therapy without ramucirumab-based therapy in sequence (n = 3697). Conclusion: Results provide real-world survival estimates for aNSCLC treated with sequences including ramucirumab- and/or ICI-based therapies.
