A Multidimensional Analysis of the Impact of Obesity on Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Therapy Efficacy

Background and Research Motivation Obesity has been identified as an important risk factor for various malignancies. It not only promotes the growth and spread of tumor cells but also leads to generally poorer prognosis in patients. However, recent research has found that obese patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) therapy, especial...
