Abstract

Lung cancer is the most common cancer of men in India, whereas it is 2nd most common in women in India as per Globocon 18 data. Smoking tobacco is the principal risk factor for causation of lung cancer. However causation of carcinoma lung in women is not clearly defined. In the present observational study we have investigated the causal risk factors of carcinoma lung among female patients especially below 60 years of age group. As part of management, trend of usage of Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (oral TKI) in female lung cancer patients was also investigated, with outcome. There is lack of epidemiological data on Lung cancer among women from India as well as outcome of Oral Tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) or Epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitor (EGFR) in female carcinoma lung.

Keywords: India, Lung cancer, oral Tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR).
