ABSTRACT
Lung cancer displays the highest morbidity and mortality worldwide. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most com-mon type of lung cancer. In-depth research was performed on the pathogenesis and biological behavior of lung cancer and the im-provement of genetic testing level. The discovery of drugs targeting epidermal growth factor receptor and anaplastic lymphoma kinase plays a significant role in individual treatment of advanced NSCLC. BIM is a protein in the Bcl-2 family that promotes apoptosis, which leads to cell death. The BIM expression level and polymorphism can influence the therapeutic effect of targeted therapy and chemo-therapy on advanced NSCLC. Therefore, this review summarizes BIM and its effects on targeted therapy and chemotherapy for ad-vanced NSCLC.
