Abstract:
Cancer treatment is one of the most important fields in medical research. All strategies such as radiotherapy, chemotherapy, surgery, and gene-based therapy have their own advantage and disadvantages. Nowadays, a novel method which combined traditional therapy with gene therapy plays an important role in the field of cancer research. This review described the current state of combined therapies of gene-based and radiate radiotherapy. Meanwhile, we evaluated the prospect of this combined treatment.
