Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Lung cancer is the leading cancer cause of death worldwide in recent decades, mainly divided into non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Lung metastasis is regulated by several elements, such as the interactions among various types of signaling in the lung cancer microenvironment and epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT). At the same time, there have been significant advances in lung cancer therapies, such as chemotherapy, targeted therapy, radiotherapy, and miRNA-based therapy immunotherapy.
This Special Issue on “New Therapeutic Strategies for Lung Cancer: An Update” aims to provide value for future investigations and promising therapeutic clues. It is also focused on the discovery of molecular insights and potential therapeutic approaches. Authors are invited to submit original research and topical review articles related to these topics.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
