Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is currently the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide, and the incidence of brain metastases (BM) in NSCLC patients is continuously increasing. The recent improvements of systemic treatment in NSCLC necessitate continuous updates on prognostic subgroups and factors determining overall survival (OS). In order to improve clinical decision-making in tumor boards, we investigated the clinical determinants affecting survival in patients with resectable NSCLC BM. A retrospective analysis was conducted of NSCLC patients with surgically resectable BM treated in our institution between 01/2015 and 12/2020. The relevant clinical factors affecting survival identified by univariate analysis were included in a multivariate logistic regression model. Overall, 264 patients were identified, with a mean age of 62.39 ± 9.98 years at the initial diagnosis of NSCLC BM and OS of 23.22 ± 1.71 months. The factors that significantly affected OS from the time of primary tumor diagnosis included the systemic metastatic load (median: 28.40 ± 4.82 vs. 40.93 ± 11.18 months, p = 0.021) as well as a number of BM |
