Abstract:
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) ranks the first among malignant tumors in China and even in the whole world. In recent years, the developement of genetic testing technology, particularly tumor gene sequencing, has provided a solid basis for the clinical molecular diagnosis of NSCLC, which has greatly increased the chances of patients benefiting from targeted therapy or immunotherapy, and ultimately extending their survival. Standardizing the use of tumor gene sequencing is crucial for the precision medicine in NSCLC. This paper discusses the normalization of tumor gene sequencing technology in the clinical molecular diagnostic pathway of NSCLC, which may promote the standardized use of tumor gene sequencing technology in targeted therapy or immunotherapy drug selection, toxicity and side effect prediction, efficacy monitoring, recurrence and prognosis evaluation of NSCLC patients. This article discusses the standardization of the application of tumor gene sequencing technology in the clinical molecular diagnosis pathway of NSCLC. Additionally, it offers a foundation for the uniform use of tumor gene sequencing technology in other solid tumors.
