Lung cancer among the Elderly in Denmark – A comprehensive population-based cohort study

The prognosis for lung cancer patients remains dire, representing the predominant cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide [1]. In Denmark, fast-track cancer patient pathways (CPPs) have been implemented in order to ensure a swift diagnostic work-up and referral to treatment with minimal delay [2]. Furthermore, notable advancement in treatment have been achieved for both limited-stage and for advanced-stage disease [3 –5]. These treatment advances have resulted in an improved prognosis for lung cancer patients in Denmark.
