Perceptions in 3.6 Million Web-Based Posts of Online Communities on the Use of Cancer Immunotherapy: Data Mining Using BERTopic

Perceptions in 3.6 Million Web-Based Posts of Online Communities on the Use of Cancer Immunotherapy: Data Mining Using BERTopic

Besides, immunotherapy-related adverse events (ir AEs) have been observed with the increasing frequency and duration of immunotherapy usage. Patients’ decisions to undergo immunotherapy are influenced by a range of factors, including their perceptions of its efficacy, side effects, procedural aspects, costs, their levels of knowledge about the treatment, and the comprehensiveness of advice provided by health care providers [5,6].

Usability and Usefulness of a Symptom Management Coaching System for Patients With Cancer Treated With Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors: Comparative Mixed Methods Study

Usability and Usefulness of a Symptom Management Coaching System for Patients With Cancer Treated With Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors: Comparative Mixed Methods Study

We aimed to recruit three participant groups; individuals diagnosed with melanoma previously treated with immunotherapy, those with renal cell carcinoma previously treated with immunotherapy, and participants without direct experience with the targeted cancer types nor with immunotherapy (thus patients with other types of cancer or informal caregivers). For each participant group, our goal was to recruit seven to nine participants.

Ultrasound-Guided High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound Combined With PD-1 Blockade in Patients With Liver Metastases From Lung Cancer: Protocol for a Single-Arm Phase 2 Trial

Ultrasound-Guided High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound Combined With PD-1 Blockade in Patients With Liver Metastases From Lung Cancer: Protocol for a Single-Arm Phase 2 Trial

Nevertheless, a substantial proportion of patients fail to benefit from immunotherapy, particularly those with lung cancer liver metastases [5]. The existence of baseline liver metastases in patients with lung cancer has been connected with a reduced response to immunotherapy.

Efficacy and Safety of a Therapy Combining Sintilimab and Chemotherapy With Cryoablation in the First-Line Treatment of Advanced Nonsquamous Non–Small Cell Lung Cancer: Protocol for a Phase II, Pilot, Single-Arm, Single-Center Study

Efficacy and Safety of a Therapy Combining Sintilimab and Chemotherapy With Cryoablation in the First-Line Treatment of Advanced Nonsquamous Non–Small Cell Lung Cancer: Protocol for a Phase II, Pilot, Single-Arm, Single-Center Study

For advanced NSCLC without driver gene mutations, immunotherapy—specifically inhibitors targeting programmed death receptor 1 (PD-1) and its ligand (PD-L1)—has significantly improved patient outcomes. The 5-year overall survival rate has reached 20%, and even 40% in patients with high PD-L1 expression [9]. As a result, immunotherapy is recommended by the NCCN [2] as a standard first-line treatment for this type of lung cancer and has become a mainstream treatment option in clinical practice.

Development of an Educational Website for Patients With Cancer and Preexisting Autoimmune Diseases Considering Immune Checkpoint Blockers: Usability and Acceptability Study

Development of an Educational Website for Patients With Cancer and Preexisting Autoimmune Diseases Considering Immune Checkpoint Blockers: Usability and Acceptability Study

Immune checkpoint blockers (ICBs) are immunotherapy drugs that enhance the immune system’s ability to target cancer by inhibiting specific pathways that regulate immune cell activity, such as programmed cell death protein 1, programmed death ligand 1, and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte–associated protein 4 [5]. These pathways are often exploited by cancer cells to evade immune detection.

A Survey of Demographics and Treatments in Melanoma Case Reports: Retrospective Bibliometric Analysis

A Survey of Demographics and Treatments in Melanoma Case Reports: Retrospective Bibliometric Analysis

Female patients were significantly more likely to receive surgery than male patients (OR 1.27, 95% CI 1.06-1.53; P=.009), and male patients were significantly more likely to receive immunotherapy (OR 1.34, 95% CI 1.10-1.62; P=.003). There were no significant differences by sex for receiving radiation therapy (P=.84) or chemotherapy (P=.49).

Tumor Immunotherapy–Related Information on Internet-Based Videos Commonly Used by the Chinese Population: Content Quality Analysis

Tumor Immunotherapy–Related Information on Internet-Based Videos Commonly Used by the Chinese Population: Content Quality Analysis

Tumor immunotherapy is an innovative treatment today. After the implementation of China's new medical insurance rates in 2022, the monthly treatment cost of immunotherapy has entered the “thousand era,” which greatly improves the accessibility of drugs. However, tumor immunotherapy has obvious uncertainty and complexity [1]. Accurate transmission of immunotherapy information to the population is important to the survival and quality of life of patients with cancer [2].
