Treatment selection and real-world analysis of immunotherapy with or without chemotherapy in PD-L1-high metastatic non-small cell lung cancer.

Patients with higher comorbidity score were less likely to receive CIT, suggesting chemotherapy avoidance in comorbid patients. Larger tumours are associated with CIT use, indicating that oncologists may use tumour size as a surrogate of disease burden. Limitations include small sample size and data cut-off. Future prospective studies could incorporate comorbid status and a validated disease burden score to stratify patients.
