Lung cancer is the most common malignancy worldwide with over 1.8 million new cases diagnosed each year. As overall survival is only 15% for five years, therefore the appropriate therapy is compulsory for its treatment. A number of therapies are in practice for its treatment, but natural products (NPs) are considered safe and effective. Among these NPs, Apigenin, Curcumin and Emodin are reported for the treatment of lung cancer; therefore we summarized the studies of these NPs against lung cancer. This review will provide an outline for further research on these compounds against lung cancer.
