Using targeted therapy treatment in lung cancer

This video is intended for non-US residents.

Targeted therapy is a drug aimed at a specific target within or on cancerous cells.

Two examples of specific targets for lung cancer are:
– Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR)
– EML4-ALK Translocation
– Research is ongoing to identify other targets in lung cancer.
