Emerging targets in advanced non-small-cell lung cancer

: New therapeutic options in non-small-cell lung cancer have been available through a great in-depth and genomic research, improving preclinical disease patterns and identifying the specific toxicity of target therapy. The multidisciplinary approach, increasingly practiced among clinicians, researchers, pharmaceutical companies and ethics committees has allowed the emergence of a new generation of translational clinical trials and the adoption of new technologies (e.g., point-of-care sequencing), then speeding up the development and trade of these new drugs. Consequently, there is a long list of therapeutic candidates that need to be efficiently evaluated early in the context of Phase I clinical trials. In this review, we discuss some of the key developments and novelties in the main histological groups.
