The development of molecular markers is crucial for improving therapy in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Here, we review perspectives of biomarker-driven personalized therapy in NSCLC, with particular reference to the detection of EML4-ALK gene rearrangements. Different molecular assays, validation, and clinical application to different types of tissue specimens are discussed. Clin Cancer Res; 16(20); 4909-11. (C) 2010 AACR.
