NCT04965129

Brief Summary

This study is conducted to test the hypothesis that patients with lung cancer undergoing treatment with immunotherapy, chemotherapy and tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors receiving a high protein diet and supplemented with fish oil will improve muscle mass, therapeutic response and modulate the intestinal microbiota within a 4 month period.
