Abstract

Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) are a powerful method to assess a patient's well-being as reported directly by the patient without any provider interpretation. PROs in lung cancer have been shown to improve patient quality of life and survival, while decreasing health care utilization. Low socioeconomic status is associated with 13% more advanced lung cancer at diagnosis and carries an inferior prognosis. The impact of social determinants of health on PROs in lung cancer requires more study. We aim to assess the association between socioeconomic status and PROs in NSCLC.
