Objective The impact of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on cancer care remains a concern. We aimed to evaluate access to diagnosis and treatment for lung cancer during the pandemic. Methods Times (days) from lung cancer symptom onset or referral to visit (pre-visit time), from visit to diagnosis (pre-diagnosis time), and from diagnosis to treatment (pre-treatment time) during the pandemic were compared with the times during the pre-pandemic period. Results The number of patients diagnosed with lung cancer was 82 and 75 during the pandemic and pre-pandemic periods, respectively. The percentage of patients with advanced-stage cancer was higher (65.9% vs. 46.7%), the percentage of patients treated with surgery was lower and the percentage treated with medication was higher (24.4% vs. 41.3% and 57.3% vs. 40.0%, respectively), the pre-visit time was longer (28.2 vs. 11.4 days), and the pre-treatment time for surgery was longer (67.3 vs. 45.6 days) during the pandemic compared with the times during the pre-pandemic period, respectively. Conclusions The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in delayed diagnoses, which could have led to patients being diagnosed with advanced disease. The pandemic also resulted in delayed therapy owing to the requirement for available intensive care unit beds for emergencies, including surgery.
