Perspectives in cancer chemoprevention.
Cancer chemoprevention can be defined as prevention of cancer by the administration of one or more chemical entities, either as individual drugs or as naturally occurring constituents of the diet. Based largely on the time period that chemopreventive agents exhibit activity in animal models of carcinogenesis, they can be classified as inhibitors of carcinogen formation, blocking agents, and sup...

متن کاملProgress in lung cancer chemoprevention.
BACKGROUND Lung cancer is one of the major causes of cancer-related deaths. Lung cancer mortality figures argue powerfully for new approaches to control this disease. The term chemoprevention can be defined as the use of specific natural or synthetic chemical agents to reverse, suppress, or prevent premalignancy from progressing to invasive cancer. METHODS Issues related to lung cancer chemop...
متن کاملProgress in breast cancer chemoprevention.
Over the past years there have been significant advances in breast cancer treatment and early detection. For the first time, a decrease in cancer mortality has been observed. Recently, much progress has been made in the understanding of carcinogenesis partly due to available new technologies to detect early molecular changes in the tissue. The knowledge of breast cancer carcinogenesis has provi...
متن کاملChemoprevention of bladder cancer.
There is a growing body of basic science and epidemiologic evidence to support a research thrust to determine whether several natural or synthetic agents, given alone or together, can lower cancer incidence. Candidate agents include analogs of vitamin A and the vitamin A precursor, beta-carotene, vitamins C and E, and the trace metal selenium. Other agents now being studied in the laboratory in...
