Summary

This study looks at immune cells in sputum (phlegm) and blood samples from 50 adults with advanced lung cancer who are starting immunotherapy. Researchers want to see if changes in these cells can predict how well the treatment works. The goal is to find better ways to identify which patients will benefit from immunotherapy, reducing side effects for those who won't.
