Cancer treatment that targets proteins that affect how cancer cells grow, divide, and disseminate is known as targeted therapy. Precision medicine is built on this foundation. Researchers are better able to build medicines that target the DNA alterations and proteins that drive cancer as they learn more about them.
Precision treatment, which takes advantage of information about the genes and proteins altered in a person's cancer, includes targeted medicines. Experts are developing new techniques to impede cancer cells' capacity to proliferate, survive, and spread by devising medications that interfere with specific chemicals in cancer cells while inflicting minimal harm to normal cells and tissues.
Hormone therapies
Signal transduction inhibitors
Gene expression modulators
Apoptosis inducers
Monoclonal antibodies
