Lung cancer represents a considerable global health threat, leading the list in terms of cancer-related deaths worldwide. An important proportion of lung cancer cases occur within Latin America, and current projections show that over the next decade, the number of deaths due to lung cancer will double in the region, underscoring the need to implement evidence-based interventions to improve outcomes. Several challenges have limited the progress in lung cancer research in Latin America for many years, though recently the surge of multidisciplinary, transnational, and transcultural research groups have overcome many of these limitations. The increase in region-specific knowledge has improved cancer care in the area, providing clinicians with a specific demographic and molecular profile for Hispanic patients with lung cancer; as a result, the implementation of precision oncology has benefited from a profound knowledge of the patient profile. Nonetheless, there are still challenges to improve research in Latin America, including stabilizing funding sources to continue independent research, supporting mentoring programs and an early immersion in clinical research for early career fellows, and overcoming barriers for publishing.
