Early palliative care for patients with<br />

metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer<br />

Conclusion:<br />

Among patients with metastatic non-small-cell<br />

lung cancer, early palliative care led to<br />

significant improvements in both quality of life<br />

and mood. As compared with patients<br />

receiving standard care, patients receiving<br />

early palliative care had less aggressive care at<br />

the end of life but longer survival.<br />
