The so-called molecularly targeted The so-called molecularly targeted anticancer treatment is based on anticancer treatment is based on compounds that interefere with cell compounds that interefere with cell targets directly connected with targets directly connected with pathogenetic events. Such therapies pathogenetic events. Such therapies are expected to target specifically are expected to target specifically tumor cells, thus allowing for strong tumor cells, thus allowing for strong anticancer effects and minimal anticancer effects and minimal toxicities toxicities
THE MOLECULARLY TARGETED ANTICANCER
TREATMENT
The possible targets are The possible targets are represented by:represented by: the interaction between the ligand the interaction between the ligand
(growth factor) and its specific receptor (growth factor) and its specific receptor with the consequent activation of a with the consequent activation of a cascade of biochemical events leading cascade of biochemical events leading to the transduction of the cell to the transduction of the cell proliferating signal from the membrane proliferating signal from the membrane surface to the nucleus;surface to the nucleus;
