Brief Summary:
This study aims to characterize the profile and outcomes for patients with Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Lung (SqCC) who progress on 1L pembrolizumab in combination with platinum based chemotherapy and receive afatinib as second line (2L) therapy.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Time on Treatment With Afatinib or Chemotherapy During Second Line (2L) Treatment [ Time Frame: From the start of second-line treatment until discontinuation of second-line treatment, up to 12.3 months for afatinib treated and up to 7.5 months for chemotherapy treated patients ]
    Time on treatment was defined as the interval from the start of second-line treatment until discontinuation of second-line treatment for any reason, e.g. toxicity, progression, death, patient choice. The end of 2L treatment was defined as the date of last treatment order for afatinib plus the days of supply on the last known treatment order up to the date of data collection (but not exceeding). The Kaplan-Meier (KM) method was used to estimate the median and 95% confidence interval for time on treatment.

  2. Time on Treatment With Afatinib During Second Line (2L) Treatment Defined by Histology Status [ Time Frame: From the start of second-line treatment until discontinuation of second-line treatment, up to 12.3 months for afatinib treated patients ]
    Time on treatment was defined as the interval from the start of second-line treatment until discontinuation of second-line treatment for any reason, e.g. toxicity, progression, death, patient choice. The end of 2L treatment was defined as the date of last treatment order for afatinib plus the days of supply on the last known treatment order up to the date of data collection (but not exceeding). The Kaplan-Meier (KM) method was used to estimate the median and 95% confidence interval for time on treatment. Patients treated with afatinib were analysed for their histology status and categorized into a squamous cell - or mixed histology treatment group.

  3. Time on Treatment With Afatinib During Second Line (2L) Treatment Defined by Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) Mutation Status [ Time Frame: From the start of second-line treatment until discontinuation of second-line treatment, up to 12.3 months for afatinib treated patients ]
    Time on treatment was defined as the interval from the start of second-line treatment until discontinuation of second-line treatment for any reason, e.g. toxicity, progression, death, patient choice. The end of 2L treatment was defined as the date of last treatment order for afatinib plus the days of supply on the last known treatment order up to the date of data collection (but not exceeding). The Kaplan-Meier (KM) method was used to estimate the median and 95% confidence interval for time on treatment.

  4. Number of Patients With Severe Immune-related Adverse Events (irAEs) of Specific Interest During Second-line Treatment [ Time Frame: From the start of second-line treatment to the end of follow-up, up to 15 months ]
    Chart abstractors (i.e. the patients treating physician) were asked to abstract information regarding severe (grade 3 or higher) irAEs of specific interest (including pneumonitis, colitis, hepatitis, interstitial lung disease, higher indeterminate pulmonary events, death, or discontinuation of therapy due to toxicity) during first line (1L) treatment and second line (2L) for both patients treated with afatinib in 2L and those treated with chemotherapy in 2L. Providers/abstractors were asked only if these specific immune related events occurred.

Plan Description:

Clinical studies sponsored by Boehringer Ingelheim, phases I to IV, interventional and non-interventional, are in scope for sharing of the raw clinical study data and clinical study documents. Exceptions might apply, e.g. studies in products where Boehringer Ingelheim is not the license holder; studies regarding pharmaceutical formulations and associated analytical methods, and studies pertinent to pharmacokinetics using human biomaterials; studies conducted in a single center or targeting rare diseases (in case of low number of patients and therefore limitations with anonymization).
