Lung Cancer (폐암), also known as Lung carcinoma is a malignant Lung tumor characterized by uncontrolled cell growth in tissues of the Lung. If left untreated, this growth can spread beyond the lung by the process of Metastasis into nearby tissue or other parts of the body. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lung_cancer)

Adenocarcinoma Molecular pathology - target #
- KRAS mutations (prevalence: 20-25%) - no FDA-approved target therapy
- EGFR mutations (prevalence: 10-15%) Asian에 특히 많음 - Gefitinib, Erlotinib
- ALK rearrangements (prevalence: 5-7%) - Crizotinib
- ROS1 gene fusiosn (prevaleuce: 1-2%) - Crizotinib, Foretinib
- BRAF - Dabrafenib, Vemurafinib (not well established)
- PIK3CA - Buparlisib (in development)
- Other less common gene mutation &/or amplifications: HER2, RET, MET, DDR2, IGF1R, FGFR, NTRK1
