Abstract

Major advances in the treatment of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients are associated with the targeted therapy. It is both highly effective in the presence of activating mutations in the tumor and generally well-tolerated. Serious adverse events are recorded much less than with chemotherapy. There are significant differences in the toxicity profile. Both early detection and proper and timely correction of complications of targeted therapies are necessary for the successful long-term treatment of metastatic NSCLC patients.
