The burden of cancer on public health is becoming more widely acknowledged. Lung cancer has one of the highest incidence and mortality rates of all cancers. The prevalence of early screening, the emergence of targeted therapy, and the development of immunotherapy have all signiﬁcantly improved the overall prognosis of lung cancer patients. The current state of affairs, however, is not encouraging, and there are issues like poor treatment outcomes for some patients and extremely poor prognoses for those with advanced lung cancer. Because of their potent immunomodulatory capabilities, thymosin drugs are frequently used in the treatment of tumors. The effectiveness of thymosin drugs in the treatment of lung cancer has been demonstrated in numerous studies, which amply demonstrates the potential and future of thymosin drugs for the treatment of lung cancer. The clinical research on thymosin peptide drugs in lung cancer and the basic research on the mechanism of thymosin drugs in anti-lung cancer are both systematically summarized and analyzed in this paper, along with future research directions.  \nKEYWORDS  \nthymosin, lung cancer, therapy, thymosin alpha 1, thymalfasin, thymopentin, immunotherapy  \n1 Introduction  \nCancer is one of the main causes of death on a global scale (1) . Cancer has been acknowledged to be an increasing public health burden (2). Lung cancer (LC) is the leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide, and it has a relatively high incidence (3) . With the popularity of low-dose computed tomography as an early screening test, more and more early lung cancers, particularly early lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), are being detected (4, 5) . LC includes non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and small cell lung cancer (SCLC), and NSCLC contains numerous pathological types such as lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) and lung adenocarcinoma, of which LUAD is the most prevalent pathological typeof LC (6). After surgical resection, early-stage LC, especially LUAD including ground-glass opacity components, has a very favorable long-term survival outcome (7, 8) . In recent years, the emergence and development of targeted therapy and immunotherapy as well asthe application of these methods to neoadjuvant therapy, have also greatly improved the  \nFrontiers in Immunology 01 [frontiersin.org](frontiersin.org)  \nprognosis of LC patients (9–12) . Even though the survival rate of lung cancer patients has gradually increased, the survival of patients with advanced lung cancer is not encouraging, and the 5-year survival rate of patients with advanced LC is even lower than 20","cbCaisK7OePNfxdp","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisK7OePNfxdp","pdf",3004725,12,"English","# Introduction\n## Lung cancer burden and current treatment landscape\n## Role of thymus and thymosin peptides\n## Overview of commonly used thymosin drugs\n## Paper scope and future research directions","[{\"question\":\"Why is new treatment needed for lung cancer, especially advanced disease?\",\"answer\":\"Lung cancer has high incidence and mortality, and advanced cases still have poor prognosis with issues such as drug resistance and limitations of current therapies.\"},{\"question\":\"What is thymosin and which thymosin-related drugs are discussed?\",\"answer\":\"Thymosin is a class of thymus-derived physiologically active polypeptides.
