Abstract:The most common distant metastasis of lung cancer is in the brain. Currently, the treatment methods for brain metastasis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) include chemotherapy, radiotherapy, molecular targeted therapy and immunotherapy. For patients with brain metastasis with specific driver gene mutations, molecular targeted drugs have achieved significant effects, among which targeted drugs combined with stereotactic radiotherapy can significantly improve the intracranial remission rate, progression-free survival and total survival time of patients. At present, the acquired drug resistance and post-treatment progress of first-line targeted drugs are the main problems in clinical practice. In this review, molecular targeting therapy for brain metastasis of NSCLC and its current status and progress are reviewed.
