Brief summary

The aim of this non-interventional study is to assess oral vinorelbine dose schedules (initial dose, dose increase/maintenance/reduction) applied during the initial 8 weeks of treatment under routine conditions in Germany together with the underlying reasons for the respective chosen schedules.

Inclusion criteria

* Written informed consent of the patient with regard to the pseudonymized documentation and processing of his/her disease data * Legally capable male or female NSCLC patient or legally capable female MBC patient; in both situations: ≥ 18 years of age (no upper limit) * Presence of any of the following two tumor entities: * Advanced NSCLC (stage III or IV) * Anthracycline- and taxane-resistant MBC (stage IV) in women * Planned systemic chemotherapy and planned regimen with oral vinorelbine in any palliative setting (decision on treatment must have been made before inclusion in this study); included treatments: * Monotherapy or any combination therapy with oral vinorelbine * Inclusion of patients with hybrid-treatment involving i.v. and oral vinorelbine in one treatment cycle is allowed

Exclusion criteria

* Presence of any contraindication with regard to oral vinorelbine treatment (and with regard to i.v. vinorelbine in case of hybrid-treatment) according to the respective Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC) * Oral vinorelbine based palliative treatment already ongoing or planned oral vinorelbine starting dose of \>60 mg/m2 * Presence of a Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) \> 2 * Simultaneous participation in an interventional clinical trial

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Rate of patients with oral vinorelbine dose increase from ≤60 to ≥80 mg/m² during the course of the study8 weeks of treatmentThe outcome will be calculated together with its negative (i.e. the rate of patients without such dose increase). Reasons for increasing and for not increasing the dose will be analyzed.
