Exploring AI tools and multi-omics for precision medicine in lung cancer therapy

Lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide, characterized by the uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal cells. Despite constant progress in diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer remains highly challenging. Present review explores the molecular underpinnings of lung cancer, emphasizing genetic mutations, altered metabolism, and the role of biomarkers in diagnosis and treatment. Advances in diagnostic methods, particularly liquid biopsies, have enabled non-invasive detection and monitoring of lung cancer. Therapeutic approaches have evolved significantly, with molecular-targeted therapies focusing on pathways like EGFR, ALK, KRAS, and MET. Caner Immunotherapy, including immune checkpoint inhibitors, artificial intelligence, and multi-omics analysis, including genomics and image data to predict treatment response, has further enhanced precision medicine by enabling earlier detection, better prognostic models, and efficient drug discovery. AI has a significant impact on various aspects of oncology, including improving the earlier diagnosis of lung cancer. Despite these advancements, challenges such as drug resistance, tumor heterogeneity, and limited efficacy of certain therapies persist, necessitating continued research and innovation.
