Lung Cancer: From Molecular Basis to Therapy

Dear Colleagues,

Lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide. Significant improvements have been made in the last decade, enabling a significant increase in survival. However, lung cancer remains a complex and heterogeneous disease, with a molecular basis that varies from individual to individual, and prognosis and disease control are still poor in many cases. Understanding the molecular basis is crucial in advancing diagnosis, treatment, and prevention strategies. This Special Issue will explore the molecular pathways behind lung cancer, its main genetic mutations, and the latest advances in therapy options. Our aim in launching this Special Issue is to emphasize that research is crucial in overcoming challenges related to drug resistance, early diagnosis, and personalized treatment.
