Automated extraction of body composition parameters from computed tomography images, using deep learning, showed that loss of skeletal muscle mass was associated with worse outcomes in patients being treated with systemic therapy for advanced NSCLC.
Using ASCO data, investigators assessed patient characteristics, treatment patterns, and outcomes among patients with EGFR exon 20-mutated non-small cell lung cancer.
