Targeted Cancer Therapies02:57

Targeted Cancer Therapies

7.7K
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...

Treatment Resistant Cancers02:56

Treatment Resistant Cancers

3.4K
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States. A cancer cell is genetically unstable and hence can mutate faster. They can also modify their microenvironment and escape immune surveillance. The difficulties in treating cancer are further compounded by the emergence of rapid resistance to anticancer drugs. The most common ways to attain resistance in cancer cells include alteration in drug transport and metabolism, modification of drug target, elevated DNA damage response, or...

Cancer Therapies

7.8K
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...

Cancer Vaccines01:30

Cancer Vaccines

447
Cancer treatment vaccines are a rapidly evolving field that offers a promising approach to immunotherapy. Unlike traditional vaccines that prevent diseases, cancer treatment vaccines are designed to treat existing cancers by stimulating the immune system to recognize and attack cancer cells.
Cancer vaccines come in two categories: preventive (prophylactic) and treatment (active). Preventive vaccines, such as the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine, protect against viruses that cause certain...

Tumor Immunotherapy01:27

Tumor Immunotherapy

584
Immunotherapy is a treatment that boosts or manipulates the immune system to fight diseases, including cancer. For instance, by stimulating an immune response through vaccinations against viruses that cause cancers, like hepatitis B virus and human papillomavirus, these diseases can be prevented. Nonetheless, some cancer cells can avoid the immune system due to their rapid mutation and division. The immune response to many cancers involves three phases: elimination, equilibrium, and escape.

Tumor Progression02:07

Tumor Progression

6.4K
Tumor progression is a phenomenon where the pre-formed tumor acquires successive mutations to become clinically more aggressive and malignant. In the 1950s, Foulds first described the stepwise progression of cancer cells through successive stages.
Colon cancer is one of the best-documented examples of tumor progression. Early mutation in the APC gene in colon cells causes a small growth on the colon wall called a polyp. With time, this polyp grows into a benign, pre-cancerous tumor. Further...

Summary

Advanced practitioners received updates on key FDA-approved oncology drugs from late 2021 to late 2022. The review covered novel mechanisms of action, expanded indications, and safety monitoring strategies for solid tumors.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Pharmacology
  • Clinical Practice

Background:

  • The landscape of cancer therapeutics is rapidly evolving with frequent regulatory approvals.
  • Advanced practitioners require timely updates on new treatments to optimize patient care.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To summarize significant Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approvals in oncology from late 2021 to late 2022.
  • To discuss the mechanisms of action, clinical utility, and safety profiles of newly approved agents.
  • To provide guidance on monitoring strategies for advanced practitioners managing patients with solid tumors.

Main Methods:

  • Review of key FDA oncology drug approvals.
  • Discussion of unique and expanded mechanisms of action.
  • Analysis of safety profiles and monitoring recommendations.
