Lung cancer such as small cell lung cancer(SCLC) and non small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) have high mortality rate, so, we insurance doctors have little interest in their risk. But nowadays there's a lot of development in targeted therapy of NSCLC. Screening by CT scanning and early resection strategy also shows better prognosis. It is helpful for underwriters and insurance doctors to review the current development of targeted therapy of NSCLC and estimation of extra-risk of early lung cancer. The preferred treatment option for patients whose tumors contain EGFR-activating mutations are one of the EGFR-directed tyrosine kinase inhibitors, such as gefitinib or erlotinib. In patients with NSCLC whose tumors harboured an ALK rearrangement, there was 61% objective response rate to crizotinib in the phase 1 study. The median survival progression-free survival was 10 months. Mortality analysis of early lung cancer who were detected by CT screening, MR of 105% and EDR of 1‰ were calculated.
