Use of tyrosine kinase inhibitors during pregnancy for oncogenic-driven advanced non-small cell lung carcinoma

Lung cancer associated with pregnancy is rare but on the increase. The use of tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy for advanced oncogenic-driven non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) has improved overall survival.
