Abstract:
Non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) is a prominent type, with an 85-90% incidence in all lung cancer cases. The evidence for a particular therapy strategy for people with NSCLC is still inadequate. This review evaluates NSCLC therapies that have passed phase IV trials, emphasizing their efficiency and adverse effects. Crucial therapeutic approaches, including dacomitinib, lorlatinib, durvalumab, osimertinib, and rivaroxban, are discussed, highlighting their mechanisms of action, uses, and adverse effects. Immune checkpoint medications are recommended because of their specific activity and minimal adverse reactions. The review also investigates cooperation therapies, such as targeting immune checkpoint inhibitors and hemostasis, alongside chemotherapy, as they offer potential for future therapies. However, further research is needed to improve the safety and efficacy of current treatments, and to explore novel ways to achieve better long-term outcomes.

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...
