Snippet: Lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer death in the world. The mainstay of treatment is chemotherapy, which is indicated for around 70% of newly diagnosed patients with local and advanced metastatic disease [93] . Other treatment options include surgery and radiotherapy [94] . Angiogenesis inhibitors [95] and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitors [96, 97] are new medications licensed for the treatment of lung cancer. Despite variou.....
Document: Lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer death in the world. The mainstay of treatment is chemotherapy, which is indicated for around 70% of newly diagnosed patients with local and advanced metastatic disease [93] . Other treatment options include surgery and radiotherapy [94] . Angiogenesis inhibitors [95] and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitors [96, 97] are new medications licensed for the treatment of lung cancer. Despite various treatment options, the prognosis of lung cancer is poor. The major problems of chemotherapy are toxicity, lack of specificity and drug resistance [98] . In recent years, pulmonary delivery of RNAi molecules is being explored as a new treatment for lung cancer [99] . Genes that are associated with tumor cell growth and drug resistance are potential targets. Table 2 summarizes some recent in vivo studies of pulmonary RNAi delivery for lung cancer treatment.
