Official Title: The Effects of an Oncology Tailored Nutritional Intervention on the Bioavailability and Immune-activity of PD-1 Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors in Patients With Lung Cancer
Brief Summary:
Over 65% of all lung cancer patients experience significant weight loss fuelled by a catabolic state that is represented by enhanced protein breakdown.The metabolic state of patients is a key effector of protein clearance, and the increased albumin as well as monoclonal antibodies clearance that is observed in patients with progressive cancer disease inversely correlates with treatment response and may well be consequential to changes in the metabolic state of cancer patients.Interestingly, several studies in…
