Targeting the Microenvironment in Advanced Colorectal Cancer.
Colorectal cancer (CRC) diagnosis often occurs at late stages when tumor cells have already disseminated. Current therapies are poorly effective for metastatic disease, the main cause of death in CRC. Despite mounting evidence implicating the tumor microenvironment in CRC progression and metastasis, clinical practice remains predominantly focused on targeting the epithelial compartment. Because...
متن کاملTargeting Angiogenesis and Tumor Microenvironment in Metastatic Colorectal Cancer: Role of Aflibercept
In the last decades, we have progressively observed an improvement in therapeutic options for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) treatment with a progressive prolongation of survival. mCRC prognosis still remains poor with low percentage of 5-year survival. Targeted agents have improved results obtained with standard chemotherapy. Angiogenesis plays a crucial role in colorectal cancer growth, ...
متن کاملClostridial Spores for Cancer Therapy: Targeting Solid Tumour Microenvironment
Solid tumour accounts for 90% of all cancers. The current treatment approach for most solid tumours is surgery, however it is limited to early stage tumours. Other treatment options such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy are non-selective, thus causing damage to both healthy and cancerous tissue. Past research has focused on understanding tumour cells themselves, and conventional wisdom has aime...
متن کاملTherapeutic targeting of microenvironment in follicular lymphoma.
Immune and nonimmune microenvironmental factors play a critical role in the progression, transformation, and resistance to therapy in follicular lymphoma (FL). A recent increase in our understanding of the role of microenvironment in FL biology has led to the development of novel therapeutic strategies targeting the nonimmune and immune microenvironment. These include immunomodulatory drugs, im...
متن کاملFirst-line therapeutic strategies in metastatic colorectal cancer.
The treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) has changed dramatically from the 1980s, when only fluorouracil (5-FU) was available for treatment and the median survival was at best 12 months, to a time when mCRC is considered more of a chronic disease in which the median survival is now reported in excess of 2 years. This review traces the evolution of treatment in this setting, includin...
