Core Tip This study assessed the prevalence of anxiety and depression, alongside associated psychosocial factors, in 128 patients with stage C advanced non-small cell lung cancer undergoing chemoradiotherapy. Additionally, it examined the cross-sectional relationships between these factors and serum tumor markers and pro-inflammatory cytokines. The findings demonstrate a significant correlation between psychological distress and socioeconomic factors; notably, elevated levels of emotional distress are linked to higher biomarker concentrations. This study highlights potential psychoneuroimmunological pathways involved in lung cancer progression and emphasizes the importance of integrating mental health screening into cancer treatment to enhance patients’ physical and mental well-being and improve biological outcomes.
