Article Abstract

With the deeper understanding of the pathophysiology and pathogenesis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) which threatens human health, NSCLC treatment has entered a new era. Transition from traditional treatment based on surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy to individualized and precise targeted therapy and safer and more effective immunotherapy. Immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy has been approved as a first-line or second-line treatment for advanced NSCLC, and has achieved extraordinary clinical results. Meanwhile, other types of immunotherapy are rarely explored in NSCLC. Chimeric antigen receptor modified T cells (CAR-T cells) perform well in treating several hematological malignancies. However, it is not ideal for treating patients with solid tumors including NSCLC. This review aims to systematically explain the latest progress of CAR-T in the treatment of NSCLC, mainly including: CAR molecular target selection, CAR-T function enhancement and related toxicity management, as well as the difficulties and prospects of CAR-T treatment of NSCLC. It aims to open up new perspectives and unique ideas for the immunotherapy of NSCLC, and contribute to the building of tumor immunotherapy.

Objectives: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is associated with poor prognosis, with 30% of patients diagnosed at an advanced stage. Mutations in the and genes are important prognostic factors for NSCLC, and targeted therapies can significantly improve survival in these patients. Although tissue biopsy remains the gold standard for detecting gene mutations, it has limitations, including invasiveness, sampling errors due to tumor heterogeneity, and poor reproducibility.

Lung cancer, particularly non-small cell lung cancer, is a leading cause of global mortality, with many cases diagnosed at advanced stages. The Toll-Like Receptor (TLR) signaling pathway plays a crucial role in linking inflammation to lung cancer progression, with both pro-tumor and anti-tumor effects. This perspective delves into the complex functions of TLR proteins in lung cancers, elucidating their involvement in tumor growth, angiogenesis, and metastasis.

Introduction: The incidence of brain metastases in patients diagnosed with ad-vanced lung cancer is high, drawing significant attention to the risk factors associated with this progression.

Methods: A total of 252 advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with brain metastases were enrolled in this study between July 2018 and December 2023 from our hos-pital. Additionally, driver genes, including EGFR, ALK, ROS1, KRAS, and RET, were doc-umented.

Approximately 3% to 5% of individuals with oncogenic rearrangements in the anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) gene develop non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Brigatinib, a potent next-generation ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), has demonstrated significant systemic and intracranial responses, as well as improved progression-free survival, with an acceptable safety profile. According to European Society for Medical Oncology guidelines patients with ALK translocation and performance status 0-3 can be offered 1st line treatment with TKI (brigatinib, alectinib, or lorlatinib).

HDAC inhibitors, which have been proven to be effective for some cancers, have potential as treatments for Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Building on the core structure of the highly selective HDAC6 inhibitor J22352, we modified various zinc-binding groups of this inhibitor. The resulting compounds 1-8 were designed and synthesized to explore potential derivatives and assess their effects on NSCLC bioactivity.
