Sotorasib after immune checkpoint inhibitor administration induces hepatotoxicity. True, false or just another adverse effect of NSCLC treatment.

ABSTRACT

Non-small cell lung cancer is still diagnosed at a late disease stage and systematic therapy is necessary. Currently we have three main treatment modalities; chemotherapy, targeted with tyrosine kinase inhibitors and immune check point inhibitors. In the recent years and based on new studies we can administer combination of chemotherapy and immunotherapy, or radiotherapy and immunotherapy. Every treatment approach is based on the specific gene expression of the tumor. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors have been used for more than a decade for epidermal growth factor positive tumors, the same for anaplastic lymphoma kinase and proto-oncogene 1. Programmed death-ligand 1 expression has been found to be associated with the efficiency of immune checkpoint inhibitors. However; there are still several subpopulations in non-small cell lung cancer patients. We will comment on the group with KRAS G12C mutation and the targeted therapy with sotorasib for its efficiency and toxicity based on new studies.
