Zusammenfassung
Angesichts der demographischen Entwicklung der kommenden Jahrzehnte wird der Anteil der älteren Lungenkrebs-Patienten bei einem aktuellen Altersmedian von 68 Jahren weiter ansteigen. Dabei ist höheres Lebensalter grundsätzlich kein alleiniger Ausschlussgrund für eine Therapiemodalität, vielmehr müssen individuell Allgemeinzustand und Komorbiditätsstatus berücksichtigt werden. In den frühen Stadien besteht in Hinsicht auf den Therapieerfolg eine leichtgradige Überlegenheit für die Lobektomie gegenüber einer sublobären Resektion, im Falle einer funktionellen Inoperabilität steht die stereotaktische Radiotherapie als sinnvolle Alternative zur Verfügung. Patienten in lokoregionär fortgeschrittenen Stadien werden wenn möglich radio-/chemotherapiert. Bei Einschränkungen wird auf eine kurativ dosierte alleinige Radiotherapie zurückgegriffen. Im fernmetastasierten Stadium kommen Carboplatin-haltige Kombinationsschemata oder Monotherapien zur Anwendung. Hier sind im Besonderen stratifizierbare zielgerichtete Therapien bei der Detektion von prädiktiven Biomarkern zu berücksichtigen. Nicht zu vernachlässigen ist im fortgeschrittenen Stadium die frühzeitige palliativmedizinische Versorgung im Hinblick auf Symptomkontrolle und psychosozialer Begleitung.
