Two-Year Experience of a Center of Excellence for the Comprehensive Management of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer at a Fourth-Level Hospital in Bogota, Colombia: Observational Case Series Study and Retrospective Analysis

<b>Background:</b> This study aimed to provide a comprehensive analysis of 56 patients admitted to the Lung Cancer Clinical Care Center (C3) at Fundación Santa Fe de Bogotá (FSFB) between 2 May 2022 and 22 April 2024. The focus was on demographic characteristics, smoking history, comorbidities, lung cancer types, TNM classification, treatment modalities, and outcomes. <b>Methods:</b> This observational case series study reviewed medical records and included patients over 18 years with a confirmed diagnosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Data were collected and analyzed for demographics, comorbidities, treatment types, biomolecular profiling, and survival rates. Ethical approval was obtained, and data were anonymized. <b>Results:</b> The mean age was 71.8 years with a female predominance (53.6%). A history of smoking was present in 71.4% of patients. Adenocarcinoma was the most common type (75.0%), followed by squamous cell carcinoma (19.6%). At admission, the most frequent TNM stages were IA2 (17.9%) and IVA (16.1%). One-year survival was 68.8%, and 94.3% of stage I-IIIA patients underwent PET scans. Biomolecular profiling revealed 69.2% non-mutated EGFR, 90.4% ALK-negative, and various PDL-1 expression levels. Immunotherapy was received by 91.4% of patients, with Alectinib and Osimertinib being common. Grade III-IV pneumonitis occurred in 5.4% of patients. <b>Conclusions:</b> The study's findings align with existing literature, highlighting significant smoking history, common adenocarcinoma, and substantial use of immunotherapy. Limitations include the observational design, small sample size, and short follow-up period, impacting the generalizability and long-term outcome assessment. Future research should address these limitations and explore longitudinal outcomes and emerging therapies.
