Cancer immunotherapy, which leverages the immune system to target neoplastic cells, has undergone significant transformation in recent. However, immunotherapy may have negative effects on skeletal muscle function, causing wasting and functional decline cancer patients. In this study, we review mechanisms by influences muscle, focusing immune-related myositis, inflammation, metabolic alterations within tumor microenvironment (TME). The key methodologies, including biomechanical assessment techniques such as electrical impedance myography ultrasound imaging, are discussed provide valuable insights into process that maintain integrity function patients receiving immunotherapy. Moreover, dual of suppression damage described, revealing significance inflammatory cytokines, checkpoints, disturbances TME. Importantly, propose combination therapies integrating nutritional interventions or anti-inflammatory potential approaches for mitigating wasting. This study highlights need deeper investigations optimize improve its efficacy preserving health, thereby improving patient outcomes quality life.
