Lung cancer is a disease with a high probability of occurrence as well as a high mortality rate. Despite the fact that numerous therapies are available, a huge number of patients die each year as a result of cancer. The rising research direction in health care pharmacy paves the way for the development of an effective and side effect-free anticancer medicine. Chemical entities found in plants are extremely useful in cancer studies. Most notary bioactive phytochemicals are preferred because they act differently only on cancer cells exclusively and not normal cells. Carcinogenesis is a multi-step process that involves numerous signaling events. Phytochemicals have a pleiotropic activity which can target these events in a variety of ways, making them an excellent choice for anticancer medication therapy. Efforts are underway to create lead candidates derived from phytochemicals that can reduce the progression of cancer without inducing any side effects.
