The high morbidity and mortality of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) have always been major threats to people's health. With the identification of carcinogenic drivers in non-small cell lung cancer and the clinical application of targeted drugs, the prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer patients has greatly improved. However, in a large number of non-small cell lung cancer cases, the carcinogenic driver is unknown. Identifying genetic alterations is critical for effective individualized therapy in NSCLC. Moreover, targeted drugs are difficult to apply in the clinic. Cancer drug resistance is an unavoidable obstacle limiting the efficacy and application of targeted drugs. This review describes the mechanisms of targeted-drug resistance and newly identified non-small cell lung cancer targets (e.g., KRAS G12C, NGRs, DDRs, CLIP1-LTK, PELP1, STK11/LKB1, NFE2L2/KEAP1, RICTOR, PTEN, RASGRF1, LINE-1, and SphK1). Research into these mechanisms and targets will drive individualized treatment of non-small cell lung cancer to generate better outcomes.

Purpose: As microwave ablation continues to be used in patients with inoperable stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), it is particularly important to monitor efficacy. Whether plasma ctDNA detection can predict its efficacy should be illustrated.
Methods: We recruited 43 patients with inoperative stage I NSCLC, all of whom underwent biopsy-synchronous microwave ablation (MWA).

Background: Several studies have suggested that lung tissue heterogeneity is associated with overall survival (OS) in lung cancer. However, the quantitative relationship between the two remains unknown. The purpose of this study is to investigate the prognostic value of whole lung-based and tumor-based radiomics for OS in LA-NSCLC treated with definitive radiotherapy.

Background: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene mutations can lead to distant metastasis in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). When the primary NSCLC lesions are removed or cannot be sampled, the EGFR status of the metastatic lesions are the potential alternative method to reflect EGFR mutations in the primary NSCLC lesions. This review aimed to evaluate the potential of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) radiomics based on extrapulmonary metastases in predicting EGFR mutations through a systematic reviews and meta-analysis.

Classification of adenocarcinoma (AC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) poses significant challenges for cytopathologists, often necessitating clinical tests and biopsies that delay treatment initiation. To address this, we developed a machine learning-based approach utilizing resected lung-tissue microbiome of AC and SCC patients for subtype classification. Differentially enriched taxa were identified using LEfSe, revealing ten potential microbial markers.
