The management of advanced nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients is becoming increasingly complex with the identification of driver mutations/rearrangements and development/availability of appropriate targeted therapies. In 2017, an expert group of medical oncologists with expertise in treating lung cancer used data from published literature and experience to arrive at practical consensus recommendations on treatment of advanced NSCLC for use by the community oncologists. This was published subsequently in the Indian Journal of Cancer with a plan to be updated annually. The present document is an update to the 2017 document.
随着驱动基因突变/重排的发现以及合适的靶向治疗方法的研发和应用,晚期非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)患者的管理变得日益复杂。2017年,一组在肺癌治疗方面具有专业知识的医学肿瘤学家专家小组利用已发表文献中的数据和经验,达成了关于晚期NSCLC治疗的实用共识建议,供社区肿瘤学家使用。该建议随后发表在《印度癌症杂志》上,并计划每年更新。本文件是对2017年文件的更新。
