摘要:
As the efficacies of chemotherapy in the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) have reached a plateau, the molecularly targeted therapy becomes a new method to improve curative effects.The molecular targeted drugs include epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors, anti-angiogenesis drugs, etc.As one of the representative drugs of EGFR inhibitors, Gefitinib, has a low clinical benefit index.Erlotinib, the first EGFRTK inhibitor, can enhance the survival of patients, and may serve as a potential choice for the first-line treatment of advanced NSCLC.Bevacizumab combined with chemotherapy has shown a favorable clinical effect in the first-line treatment, and it is also the first anti-angiogenesis drug approved by the FDA that can be used in cancer treatment.These drugs, together with clinical and experimental progress in many other targeted drugs, have shown a favorable prospect for targeted drugs in the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
