💬In plain words
What the trial is, and whether it could suit you
Immunotherapy has improved the prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients, but about 80% of patients do not respond at all (primary resistance), and some patients initially respond to immunotherapy, later relapse and develop disease progression (acquired resistance).
So the objective of this research is to explore the sugar chain heterogeneity of primary and acquired resistance to immunotherapy in patients with NSCLC.
