Abstract
- Central nervous system (CNS) metastases are frequently diagnosed in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Only recently, clinical trials are broadening eligibility to include patients with brain metastases, offering the potential for some assessment of CNS efficacy to be made. In this work we aim to review the available information on the activity of small molecule targeted drugs for advanced NSCLC with respect to CNS metastases. We analyze a framework for evaluation assessment regarding trials of systemic agents being conducted in patients with, or at risk from, CNS metastases, and provide examples of NSCLC targeted therapies evaluated in the CNS.<br /> (Copyright © 2023 Elsevier Inc.
