- Summary:
- Tremendous progress has been made in the war on cancer, leading to improvements in cancer prevention, detection, and treatment. Together, these advances have resulted in decreasing incidences and a steadily declining death rate from cancer. However, for patients who develop stage IV cancer, cancer that has spread to distant organs, their prognosis remains grim. Conventional chemotherapy is limited in its ability to successfully eradicate metastatic disease. Therefore, new modalities and approaches are desperately needed if we are to make progress toward conquering this last mountaintop of cancer research. This book lays out the rationale for a novel therapeutic strategy using new targeted drugs to develop effective ways to treat patients with metastatic cancer.
