OncoHost study offers insights into resistance mechanisms in immunotherapy-treated lung cancer

A recent OncoHost study provides insight in understanding resistance to immune checkpoint inhibitors in advanced non-small cell lung cancer. Through a comprehensive bioinformatic analysis of pretreatment plasma proteomic profiles from 272 NSCLC patients, researchers identified key biological processes associated with resistance and revealed therapeutic targets that could inform future precision treatment strategies.
