| Sumario: | The standard approach for stage IB and IIIIIA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), associated with the high risk of relapse, after total lung resection is adjuvant chemotherapy, nowadays. The 5-year survival benefit for this approach is about 5%, and the risk of relapse reduces from 11 to 15%, depending on the stage. However, the relapse rate within 5 years after surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy in stage IBIIIA NSCLC is up to 70%. This fact requires the search for new solutions. The efficacy and safety profile of targeted drugs in metastatic NSCLC show the possibility to use them as adjuvant therapy in the early stages of the disease. This approach was actively studied in patients with mutations in the EGFR gene, and the most promising were the results of the ADAURA trial, which had been studied the use of Osimertinib, a third-generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor, as adjuvant therapy. The use of adjuvant targeted therapy in ALK-positive patients is currently less studied and its efficacy will be determined as the results of the ALINA and ALCHEMIST trials are obtained. |
