Multi-targeted therapies in non-small cell lung cancer

Multi-targeted therapies in non-small cell lung cancer Current treatment modalities provide limited improvement in the natural course of lung cancer, and prognosis remains poor. Lung cancer is a malignancy with great molecular heterogeneity. The complexity of the signaling process leading to cancer cell proliferation and to the neoplastic phenotype supports the necessity of interfering at different stages to avoid cancer cell resistance to therapy. For this reason, new strategies for the simultaneous inhibition of multiple molecular targets are being pursued. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Clinical Oncology and Cancer Research Springer Journals

Abstract

Current treatment modalities provide limited improvement in the natural course of lung cancer, and prognosis remains poor. Lung cancer is a malignancy with great molecular heterogeneity. The complexity of the signaling process leading to cancer cell proliferation and to the neoplastic phenotype supports the necessity of interfering at different stages to avoid cancer cell resistance to therapy. For this reason, new strategies for the simultaneous inhibition of multiple molecular targets are being pursued.
