(1) Purpose: To describe first-line pharmacotherapy and overall survival in non-resectable non-small cell lung cancer (nrNSCLC) patients by gender. (2) Methods: Incident cases of nrNSCLC recorded between 2009 and 2019 (cohort entry) in the pathology registry of the regional administrative healthcare database of Tuscany were identified. Records of antineoplastic therapies delivered up to 4 months following cohort entry were classified as chemotherapy, target therapies, immunotherapies, and undefined monoclonal antibodies. First-line treatment and survival of patients receiving drug treatment was described. Analyses were stratified according to histology, gender, and cohort entry year. (3) Results: 4393 incident cases of nrNSCLC were included. Women with non-squamous-NSCLC received target-therapy more frequently than men (14.9% vs. 6.5%). Immunotherapy incidence of use varied between 3.8% (2017) and 9.1% (2019). The 2-year survival rate increased over time: for non-squamous-NSCLC, it was 22.3% (2009–2011) and 30.6% (2018–2019), while for squamous-NSCLC, it was 13.5% and 22.5%, respectively. After multivariate analysis, a low reduction in mortality risk in 2018–2019 vs. 2009–2011 was found (non-squamous: HR: 0.95 CI95%: 0.92–0.98; squamous: HR: 0.94 CI95%: 0.90–0.98). Among non-squamous NSCLC, median survival was longer in women than in men (389 vs. 276 days). (4) Conclusion: In light of sex-related biomolecular differences, among non-squamous NSCLC, women received target-therapy more frequently than men. Survival seemed to slightly improve over the study period for both histologies, despite a poor reduction in mortality risk was still observed.
