Targeted therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma: novel agents on the horizon
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common liver cancer, accounting for 90% of primary liver cancers. In the last decade it has become one of the most frequently occurring tumors worldwide and is also considered to be the most lethal of the cancer systems, accounting for approximately one third of all malignancies. Although the clinical diagnosis and management of early-stage HCC has imp...
متن کاملHepatocellular Carcinoma: Novel Molecular Targets in Carcinogenesis for Future Therapies
BACKGROUND Hepatocellular carcinoma is one of the most common and lethal malignant tumors worldwide. Over the past 15 years, the incidence of HCC has more than doubled. Due to late diagnosis and/or advanced underlying liver cirrhosis, only limited treatment options with marginal clinical benefit are available in up to 70% of patients. During the last decades, no effective conventional cytotoxic...
متن کاملBiomarkers for novel targeted therapies of hepatocellular carcinoma.
Increasing insights into molecular alterations of signalling pathways have led to the development of specific targeted therapies for cancer. Due to the high specificity of monoclonal antibodies or small molecule inhibitors, identification of patients who will benefit from these therapeutics is crucial for treatment success. Furthermore, as classical endpoints of clinical trials are not fully ap...
متن کاملInterventional therapies for hepatocellular carcinoma
Hepatocellular carcinoma is the third most common cause of cancer-related death. In the past few years, staging systems have been developed that enable patients to be stratified into treatment algorithms in a multidisciplinary setting. Several of these treatments involve minimally invasive image-guided therapy that can be performed by radiologists.
متن کاملTransarterial Therapies for Hepatocellular Carcinoma.
BACKGROUND The treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is still a major health issue because of its increasing incidence and because of the complexity of its management. Transarterial embolization (TAE) and transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) are two widely used locoregional therapies in the treatment of HCC, especially for unresectable intermediate and advanced HCCs. SUMMARY The moder...
