Advances in molecular pathology and therapy of non-small cell lung cancer

Over the past two decades, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has witnessed encouraging advancements in basic and clinical research. However, substantial unmet needs remain for patients worldwide, as drug resistance persists as an inevitable reality. Meanwhile, the journey towards amplifying the breadth and depth of the therapeutic effect requires comprehending and integrating diverse and profound progress. In this review, therefore, we aim to comprehensively present such progress that spans the various aspects of molecular pathology, encompassing elucidations of metastatic mechanisms, identification of therapeutic targets, and dissection of spatial omics. Additionally, we also highlight the numerous small…
