Novel anti-metastatic treatments |
|
Cancer affects one in three individuals and is the leading cause of death below the age of 75 in most Western countries. Enormous efforts have been focused on improving diagnostics and therapeutics for cancer. However, the overall mortality rates remain virtually constant. |
The primary tumour is rarely the cause of death of cancer patients. In fact, in the vast majority of cases, cancer-associated mortality is the result of cancer cell dissemination to other organs, i.e. metastasis. The inherent problem with most current therapeutic approaches is their failure to target the dissemination process. |
