Targeted Cancer Therapies

Targeted Cancer Therapies

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...

Background:

Eosinophils are key immune cells involved in allergic diseases like asthma and helminth infections.
These cells are increasingly observed infiltrating various tumor tissues.

Conclusions:

Eosinophils play a complex role in lung cancer, with potential to affect tumor development.
Further research is needed to fully elucidate their clinical and basic implications in lung cancer.
