Platinum-based complexes, as one of the mainstay chemotherapeutic agents in oncology, have evolved from first-generation Cisplatin to third-generation Oxaliplatin, with numerous platinum complexes currently under clinical investigation. This review systematically evaluates all existing platinum complexes for lung cancer treatment, including three generations of approved agents and investigational candidates, with comprehensive analysis of therapeutic efficacy and toxicity profiles. Our assessment aims to provide novel insights for developing next-generation platinum complexes with optimal therapeutic potential.

Cancer Therapies
However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...
