Molecular Targeting in Oncology
Molecular Targeting in Oncology covers the complexity of the rapidly developing area of targeted therapies for the treatment of patients with cancer and is structured in a way that readers may begin with chapters that most interest them and work through the rest in the order of their choice. The book is divided into five sections that cover the most important elements of drug development. The first section focuses on approaches using targeted therapies to inhibit cell growth. The second describes how clinicians are evaluating targeted therapies in specific organ systems. The third illustrates how various classes of pharmacologic and immunologic agents are developed for individual molecular targets. The fourth details new drugs that have novel mechanisms of action. The final section looks to the future of targeted therapeutics and includes chapters on appropriate patient selection, use of combination therapy, dealing with tumor cell resistance, and more.
