Cancer patients face more treatment side effects from rare lung infections
NCT ID NCT05030701
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study examined 41 patients treated for non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) infections, comparing those with and without cancer. The goal was to count side effects from NTM treatment in each group to understand why cancer patients often stop therapy. Researchers hope this will lead to better management of side effects in cancer patients.
