RESUMO
The morbidity and mortality of lung cancer are the highest in China, and the non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) is the first one, accounting for about 80% of lung cancer.NSCLC includes squamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, etc.Because of the slow growth of lung cancer cells and the late diffusion and metastasis, most of the patients were in late stage and lost the best period of surgical treatment.In recent years, molecular targeted therapy for specific genes has become an important strategy for the treatment of NSCLC.Multiple target genes, such as EGFR, KRAS, BRAF and EML4-ALK have been identified.This article reviews the related driving genes and molecular targeted therapy of NSCLC, expecting to be helpful to the individualized treatment of advanced NSCLC patients.
