Hypoalbuminaemia as a Prognostic Biomarker of First-Line Treatment Resistance in Metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

Hypoalbuminaemia as a Prognostic Biomarker of First-Line Treatment Resistance in Metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

Introduction: Despite significant advances in systemic anticancer therapy (SACT) for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), many patients still fail to respond to treatment or develop treatment resistance.
