Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This is the prospective, observational cohort study (STRESS-LUNG) to explore the associations of psychological stress with progression, efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) and prognosis of Lung Cancer. The participants including the patients diagnosed with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who received the first-line therapy or neoadjuvant therapy of ICIs; patients diagnosed with advanced small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) receiving the first-line therapy ICIs; patients diagnosed with early small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) receiving surgery.
