- W2960730055 abstract "e18543 Background: Mesothelioma is a rare malignancy primarily attributed to asbestos exposure and has limited life expectancy. This study examined patient characteristics, and treatment patterns in commercially insured mesothelioma patients in real world setting. Methods: Patients aged ≥18 yrs with mesothelioma diagnosis were identified using ICD-9 and CPT codes/clinical algorithm between 7/1/2006 and 4/30/2011 from HealthCore Integrated Research Database. Patients with other cancers and without continuous insurance enrollment for ≤ 6-mos before or 12-mos post-diagnosis were excluded. Treatments were grouped into surgery, systemic chemotherapy (Ctx), and best supportive care (BSC) and were assessed descriptively. Results: A total of 184 patients were identified (mean age 64 yrs with 41% patients between 45 and 64 yrs old and 48% ≥65 yrs old, 64% males) with diagnosis of mesothelioma. 61% patients had pleural, 25% had peritoneal and 14% had pericardial disease. Only 10% patients received surgery, 27% received Ctx, while 50% received BSC (including radiation). Among patients who received 1 st line Ctx (mean duration 90 days), almost half of patients received pemetrexed based regimen {pemetrexed + cisplatin (18%) or carboplatin (10%) and pemetrexed alone (20%)} followed by carboplatin monotherapy (42%). Among 41% who received 2 nd line Ctx regimens (mean duration 105 days), most commonly used (65%) were pemetrexed based regimens {pemetrexed alone (35%) and pemetrexed + cisplatin (15%) or carboplatin (15%)} followed by single agent gemcitabine (15%). No patients received vinorelbine (0%). In patients who received Ctx, 35% died before receiving 2nd line Ctx and an additional 15% of patients died before receiving 3rd line Ctx. Only 16% received 3 rd line Ctx. Around 41% patients had at least one emergency room visit and 80% had at least one hospitalization. Conclusions: Mesothelioma is predominant in males and older adults in commercially insured patients in the United States. Systemic chemotherapy remains the main treatment strategy with pemetrexed based therapy being most commonly used regimen. This study highlights limited treatment options and high unmet need in this population." @default.
