Research progress and challenges in the treatment of oncogene-addicted non-small cell lung cancer

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Over the past 2 decades, remarkable advancements in the screening, diagnosis, and treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) have led to improved patient outcomes. For the treatment of NSCLC with actionable gene mutations, tyrosine kinase inhibitors developed against EGFR, ALK, RET, BRAF, ROS1, NTRK, MET, and KRAS, exhibit substantial antitumor activity and have been incorporated into standard treatment regimens. Additionally, numerous novel therapies, including immunotherapy and antibody-drug conjugate therapy, have been found to benefit patients with NSCLC. This review summarizes current advancements in targeted therapy for NSCLC, according to a systematic search of the PubMed database and synthesis of cutting-edge findings presented at the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting and 2024 World Conference on Lung Cancer.
