Targeted Cancer Therapies

8.6K
The targeted cancer therapies, also known as “molecular targeted therapies,” take advantage of the molecular and genetic differences between the cancer cells and the normal cells. It needs a thorough understanding of the cancer cells to develop drugs that can target specific molecular aspects that drive the growth, progression, and spread of cancer cells without affecting the growth and survival of other normal cells in the body.
There are several types of targeted therapies against...

Cancer Therapies

9.9K
Cancer therapies are various modes of treatment, such as surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy that are administered to cancer patients.
However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...

Mucosal Barrier of the Stomach01:25

Mucosal Barrier of the Stomach

2.1K
The gastric glands contain parietal cells that secrete hydrochloric acid (HCl) for digestion. The cells secrete HCl because it is highly corrosive and essential for breaking down food. To achieve this, they secrete hydrogen and chloride ions into the lumen of the gastric glands, which combine to form HCl.
Within parietal cells, carbonic acid is first formed through the reaction of water and carbon dioxide. The dissociation of carbonic acid releases bicarbonate and hydrogen ions. The bicarbonate...

Oral Cavity

3.0K
The oral cavity, or the mouth, is a complex structure in humans that plays a vital role in our day-to-day lives. Its role is not only in chewing and swallowing food; it also plays a role in speech and facial expressions.
Teeth: The teeth are the hardest structures in our bodies. Humans have two sets of teeth throughout their lifetime: deciduous (baby) teeth and permanent teeth. Each tooth consists of several parts: the crown (visible part), the root (embedded in the jaw), enamel (hard outer...

Gene Therapy00:59

Gene Therapy

27.4K
Gene therapy is a technique where a gene is inserted into a person’s cells to prevent or treat a serious disease. The added gene may be a healthy version of the gene that is mutated in the patient, or it could be a different gene that inactivates or compensates for the patient’s disease-causing gene. For example, in patients with severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) due to a mutation in the gene for the enzyme adenosine deaminase, a functioning version of the gene can be...

Group Therapy01:26

Group Therapy

Group therapy is a sociocultural approach to psychological treatment, where individuals with shared psychological challenges come together under the guidance of a mental health professional. This therapeutic modality offers unique opportunities for individuals to connect, share, and grow within the context of a supportive group. By fostering mutual understanding and collaboration, group therapy can address a range of psychological concerns effectively, often complementing or surpassing the...

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Oral Medicine
  • Translational Research

Background:

  • Targeted cancer therapies have revolutionized cancer treatment, improving efficacy and reducing adverse events.
  • Despite benefits, toxicities like oral mucosal lesions remain a clinical challenge.
  • The pathobiology of these therapy-induced oral lesions is not well understood.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the need for novel research strategies for oral mucosal lesions caused by targeted cancer therapies.
  • To explore research modeling by comparing oncology and non-oncology oral mucosal conditions.
  • To emphasize current mechanistic insights and clinical treatments for these lesions.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing literature on targeted cancer therapies and their oral toxicities.
  • Conceptual research modeling by extrapolating from oral mucosal conditions in non-cancer patients.
  • Emphasis on current mechanistic understanding and clinical management strategies.

Main Results:

  • Targeted therapies offer significant benefits but can lead to clinically challenging oral toxicities.
  • Preliminary investigation shows a need for enhanced understanding of oral lesion pathobiology.
  • Comparative modeling with non-oncology oral conditions may offer new research insights.

Conclusions:

  • There is a critical need for basic, translational, and clinical research to develop preventive and therapeutic strategies for oral mucosal lesions.
  • Extrapolating from non-oncology oral conditions can enhance research modeling.
  • This approach aims to improve future cancer patient treatment by addressing oral side effects.
