Abstract
Lung cancer has attracted much attention because of its high morbidity and mortality worldwide. The advent of immunotherapy approaches, especially the application of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has dramatically changed the treatment of lung cancer, but a novel and unexpected pattern of treatment response-- pseudoprogression, has been observed simultaneously which complicates the routine clinical evaluation and management. However, manifestations of pseudoprogression vary and there are many disputes on immune-related response assessment and corresponding treatments for lung cancer. Therefore, we summarized the possible mechanisms, clinical manifestations and corresponding treatment measures of pseudoprogression in lung cancer, as well as potential methods to differentiate pseudoprogression from true tumor progression.
