Current available treatments for NSCLC

Abstract

Lung cancer is one of the most prominent forms of cancer and ranks as the deadliest of disease afflicting humanity. To tackle this issue, a variety of treatment approaches have been devised to counteract this disease. This review aims to illustrate the mainstream curative and palliative treatment methods in managing non-small cell lung cancer, the most common subtype of lung malignancies.For each treatment method, we have investigated its mechanism, classifications, and techniques involved as well as the clinical success of these treatments. Furthermore, we have also included the reasoning behind each treatment plan, including both quality of life as well as overall survival benefits for the patient.
