Molecular targeted therapies are now guideline-recommended treatments for unresectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients harboring driver gene mutations as a front-line treatment. Currently, 17 agents have been approved in Japan for the treatment of patients with NSCLC harboring EGFR mutation, ALK/ROS1/NTRK/RET fusions, BRAF V600E mutation, or MET exon 14 skipping mutation. In addition, many novel agents are being developed against NSCLCs with the other driver mutations such as EGFR or HER2 exon 20 insertion mutations and KRAS G12C mutation. In the era of personalized medicine, thoracic surgeons are expected to play an important role, as one of specialists for multidisciplinary treatments of NSCLCs, at the tumor boards/cancer boards, therefore, the knowledge of genetic testing and molecular targeted drugs is becoming essential for thoracic surgeons. In this review, from the standpoint of thoracic surgeons, we briefly summarize current topics on molecular testing in NSCLCs, approved molecular targeted drugs in Japan, acquired resistance mechanisms to these agents, and attempts to use molecular targeted drugs in adjuvant/neoadjuvant settings.
