Thoracic Oncology
An Introduction to Thoracic Oncology
Although the incidence and mortality from lung cancer is decreasing in some Western countries due to decades of public education and tobacco control policies, it remains a major cause of mortality worldwide. The treatment landscape for non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has been transformed in the past decade, thanks to the development of immune checkpoint inhibitors targeting the programmed cell death-1 (PD-1), programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1) and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4), and therapies targeting specific genetic alterations.
