The management of lung cancer (LC) requires the analysis of a diverse spectrum of molecular targets, including kinase activating mutations in EGFR, ERBB2 (HER2), BRAF and MET oncogenes, KRAS G12C substitutions, and ALK, ROS1, RET and NTRK1-3 gene fusions. The gene discussed is BRAF; the disease is lung carcinoma.
