Abstract
The use of next-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors has led to improved progression-free survival for patients with metastatic non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and those with EGFR-mutant and ALK-positive tumors. Newer therapeutics can now target KRAS G12C mutations, EGFR exon 20 insertions, and ERBB2 (HER2) mutations. Patients with metastatic NSCLC should undergo molecular testing for these mutations as well as for BRAF mutations; MET exon 14 skipping alterations; and ROS1, RET, and NTRK gene rearrangements (fusions). Novel targeted therapeutics are emerging at a fast pace.
