  • In 2014, developments in our understanding of escape signalling circuits implicated in resistance to targeted agents in patients with lung cancer have led to improvements in tackling such resistance. The potential role for PET in the management of erlotinib therapy, novel combination therapies and pharmacogenomic-driven individualization of platinum-based chemotherapy represent other key advances.

  • Two phase III trials have shown that prolonging chemotherapy duration improves outcome in patients with nonsquamous non-small-cell lung cancer. Pemetrexed versus placebo, and pemetrexed–bevacizumab versus bevacizumab was tested in patients without disease progression after pemetrexed–cisplatin treatment. Biomarker-directed chemotherapy and/or targeted therapy could further improve treatment outcomes for patients with lung cancer.

  • Analysis of circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) in blood samples provides a surrogate form of tumour biopsy (liquid biopsy) for determining EGFR and KRAS mutation status in patients with advanced-stage non-small-cell lung cancer. This approach obviates the need for a repeat biopsy, especially for the EGFR T790M mutation, which confers resistance to EGFR inhibition.
