Cancer is the leading cause of death worldwide. Over 2 million people in the UK alone are
currently living with the consequences of cancer and its treatment and this figure is projected to
grow at more than 3% in a year. However, despite major improvements in diagnostic tools,
patient management and cytotoxic therapies during the past quarter century, the impact on longterm
survival has been modest. As our knowledge of the molecular biology of cancers in general
has increased exponentially during the last 2 decades, multiple new targets have been identified
and they provide a host of new approaches. This review addressed some of the recent approaches
and idea for the treatment of cancer. |
