概述

什么是肺癌

Lung cancer occurs when cells in the lung grow out of control forming a tumor. Lung cancer is broken out into two main subtypes, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC, the most common type) and small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Types of NSCLC cancer include adenocarcinoma, large cell, and squamous cell carcinoma. In lung cancer, especially NSCLC, genetic changes are common and influence what type of treatment is used. Some of these genetic changes include mutations in EGFR, ALK and KRAS genes. Treatment options may include surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, targeted drug therapy and immunotherapy.1
