Exploring the relationship between anorexia and therapeutic efficacy in advanced lung cancer treatment: a retrospective study.

Chemotherapy-induced anorexia was associated with significant weight loss and reduced treatment efficacy in patients with stage IV non-small-cell lung cancer. These results highlight the importance of implementing robust supportive care for chemotherapy-induced anorexia to mitigate weight loss and uphold treatment effectiveness during platinum-based chemotherapy combined with immune checkpoint inhibitors.
