Erman Akkus: BMI and survival with immune checkpoint inhibitors

Erman Akkus, Medical Oncology Fellow at Ankara University, shared an article by Eric V. Mastrolonardo, et al. on X:

“BMI and survival with immune checkpoint inhibitors.

  • 18,434 patients
  • BMI >30 vs 20-24.9
  • OS with obesity
  • HR: 0.69 (0.66–0.72)

except RCC.”

Improved survival with elevated BMI following immune checkpoint inhibition across various solid tumor cancer types.
