Background: Addressing the challenge of cancer control requires a comprehensive, integrated, and global health-system response. We aimed to estimate global radiotherapy demands and requirements for radiotherapy professionals from 2022 to 2050.
Methods: We conducted a population-based study using data from the Global Cancer Observatory (GLOBOCAN) 2022 and predicted global radiotherapy demands and workforce requirements in 2050.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how tumor PD-L1 expression and distant metastasis affect the effectiveness of immunotherapy in Moroccan patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
- It analyzed data from 40 patients treated between January 2019 and February 2023, using immunohistochemistry and qPCR to determine cancer markers and expression levels.
- Results indicated that positive PD-L1 expression correlates with shorter survival rates, while a high metastatic burden significantly lowers treatment response and survival outcomes.
