About this trial

Checkpoint inhibitor-related pneumonitis (CIP) is a common fatal immune-related adverse events of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors. Early diagnosis of CIP is crucial for timely intervention and improved prognosis; however, the absence of precise and effective diagnostic techniques often leads to underdiagnosis and misdiagnosis. The investigators conducted a prospective clinical study to evaluate the effectiveness of ¹H-nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-based lipoprotein and metabolite analysis in diagnosing checkpoint inhibitor-related pneumonitis (CIP), aiming to improve its early diagnosis rate.
