Abstract:
Lung cancer is one of the most frequent malignant tumors. Target therapy is a milestone of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treatment in the 21st century. Biomarker detections have provided a solid foundation for individualized treatment. This review mainly focused on significance of EGFR mutation detection in EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) as first line, second line and maintenance therapy in NSCLC. Simultaneously, this review introduced predicting significance of EGFR FISH test for the response of TKI treatment, and analyzed potential predictive biomarkers for antiangiogenic agents and status of antiEGFR monoclonal antibody in NSCLC individual therapy.
