Lung cancer study reveals hidden toll of muscle loss during targeted therapy
NCT ID NCT07559526
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at the nutrition and body composition of 25 adults with non-small-cell lung cancer who were taking the drug osimertinib. Researchers measured weight, muscle mass, and strength to see how common malnutrition and muscle loss were, and how these affected quality of life. The goal was to gather information, not to test a new treatment.
