Targeted cancer therapy: review article

Cancer is one of the most dangerous health problems of today modern societies which has an increasing rate especially in developing countries. There are many diverse ongoing treatment attempts trying to defeat cancer. Despite that, scientists have been unable to find a permanent cure for this disease. In many cases although there is a successful first response in patients, cancer cells are fina...

Systemic Targeted Alpha Radiotherapy for Cancer

Background: The fundamental principles of internal targeted alpha therapy for cancer were established many decades ago.The high linear energy transfer (LET) of alpha radiation to the targeted cancer cellscauses double strand breaks in DNA. At the same time, the short range radiation spares adjacent normal tissues. This targeted approach complements conventional external beam radiotherapy and ch...

gene expression profiling for cancer targeted therapy

background : lung cancer is still the leading cause of cancer- related deaths and most of themâ  are normally diagnosed in late stages, so there is an urgent need to establish reliable tools for the identification at early stages of the disease. in this study, we use an eleven gene signature test to examine lung biopsy specimens for diagnostic, prognostic & therapeutic purposes. methods : bronc...
