Lung Cancer: Types of Mutations
Lung cancer is a prevalent form of cancer originating in the lungs, commonly associated with smoking. Genetic mutations play a significant role in lung cancer, with the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation. Other important mutations include KRAS, NRAS, HRAS ALK, ROS1, and BRAF. Detecting these mutations through genetic testing helps guide personalized treatment approaches for improved outcomes in lung cancer patients.
