Personalized Medicine versus Stratified Medicine ¾ Individual patients, ¾ Patient sub-populations e.g. cancer vaccine made from the patient’s tumor 5 Stratified Medicine: Basic Principle 6 How Can Stratified Medicine Help the Patients, Clinicians and Healthcare Systems?

Upon administration, tanibirumab specifically binds to VEGFR2, thereby preventing the binding of its ligand VEGF. This may result in the inhibition of tumor angiogenesis and a decrease in tumor nutrient supply. VEGFR2 is a pro-angiogenic growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase expressed by endothelial cells, while VEGF is overexpressed in many tumors and is correlated to tumor progression.

These authors contributed equally to this work. y Received: 16 November 2020; Accepted: 9 December 2020; Published: 11 December 2020 Simple Summary: Immuno-oncology has redefined the treatment of lung cancer, with the ultimate goal being the reactivation of the anti-tumor immune response. This has led to the development of several therapeutic strategies focused in this direction. However, a high percentage of lung cancer patients do not respond to these therapies or their responses are transient. Here, we summarized the impact of immunotherapy on lung cancer patients in the latest clinical trials conducted on this disease. As well as the mechanisms of primary and acquired resistance to immunotherapy in this disease. Abstract: After several decades without maintained responses or long-term survival of patients with lung cancer, novel therapies have emerged as a hopeful milestone in this research field.
