Lung cancer has become the most common cancer and the leading cause of cancer death in the world [1,2]. Non-small cell lung cancer accounts for at least 85 in all lung cancer cases [3], presenting as local advanced disease in approximately 25?0 of cases and as metastatic disease in approximately 40?0 of cases [4]. Various epidemiological studies have shown that the 5-year survival rate for patients with NSCLC is extremely low, ranging from 5 to 15 [2]. For NSCLC patients with local advanced or metastatic disease, chemotherapy, radiation and supportive treatment are the principal therapies given the fact that these patients are not able to tolerate surgical operations. However, standard first-line chemotherapy has limited efficacy for NSCLC patients, with an objective response rate about 30 , mediansurvival time 8? months and 1-year survival rate 30?0 [5], all of which call for a more effective and safer therapy for lung cancer. In general, aberrant biological pathways in tumorigenesis Apocynin web result in the disfunction of a protein molecule or a gene fragment, mostly at the molecular level. Accordingly, recent clinical trials have focused on targeted therapies designed to interfere with specific aberrant biological pathways as a new treatment option for NSCLC [6]. Studies, including a recent meta-analysis report, have showed that the use of chemotherapy plus Bevacizumab (at a dose of 15 mg/kg, every 3 weeks) increases two year survival rate for patients diagnosed with advanced lung cancer compared to chemotherapy alone[7,8]. The main agents that have been investigated so far in NSCLC treatment are epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) family (tyrosine kinase) inhibitors (gefitinibTable 1.
