The leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide is still lung cancer, which is mostly caused by cigarette smoking but is also influenced by radiation exposure, occupational carcinogens, environmental contaminants, and genetics. The majority of patients continue to be diagnosed at advanced stages, leading to few curative options and low overall survival, despite significant advancements in clinical evaluation—including the development of the TNM classification system, minimally invasive biopsy procedures, and improved imaging modalities. Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is primarily treated with chemoradiation because of its rapid progression and early metastatic potential, while non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is treated with a combination of surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted molecular therapies, and immunotherapy. Immune checkpoint inhibitors and the identification of actionable genetic alterations have fundamentally changed therapy paradigms, providing better results for some patient populations. Additionally, new drug delivery methods based on nanotechnology, like liposomes, nanoparticles, and nanocomposites, have the potential to improve therapeutic selectivity, reduce systemic toxicity, and overcome resistance mechanisms. The overall prognosis is still difficult despite these developments, highlighting the need for effective preventative programs, early diagnosis techniques, individualized treatment plans, and ongoing research into cutting-edge therapeutic technology targeted at enhancing long-term survival.
