Overcoming drug resistance in lung cancer.
Anticancer drugs have been explored by means of random screening and demonstrated to be active against not only hematologic malignancies but also some solid tumors. Recent progress in the field of molecular biology has identified many new molecular targets for anticancer drugs. In this review, for example, signal-transduction pathways, which are influenced by newer agents like the taxanes (pacl...
متن کاملThe new concepts on overcoming drug resistance in lung cancer
Lung cancer is one of the most deadly diseases worldwide. The current first-line therapies include chemotherapy using epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors and radiotherapies. With the current progress in identifying new molecular targets, acquired drug resistance stands as an obstacle for good prognosis. About half the patients receiving epidermal growth factor receptor-t...
متن کاملOvercoming multiple drug resistance mechanisms in medulloblastoma
INTRODUCTION Medulloblastoma (MB) is the most common malignant paediatric brain tumour. Recurrence and progression of disease occurs in 15-20% of standard risk and 30-40% of high risk patients. We analysed whether circumvention of chemoresistance pathways (drug export, DNA repair and apoptotic inhibition) can restore chemotherapeutic efficacy in a panel of MB cell lines. RESULTS We demonstrat...
متن کاملCombating and overcoming drug resistance in cancer
While the majority of patients with cancer treated with chemotherapy initially respond to treatment, a sub-group of patients either do not respond or eventually stop responding to the therapy in a phenomenon known as tumor cell resistance. Evidence of many different mechanisms of resistance have been reported in the literature, and it remains a great challenge to delineate the pathways involved...
متن کاملDrug resistance analysis of gefitinib-targeted therapy in non-small cell lung cancer
The aim of the study was to examine the drug resistance analysis of gefitinib-targeted therapy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In total, 156 NSCLC patients without surgical treatment were selected, including 117 cases of adenocarcinoma (75%), to receive single gefitinib 0.25 g/day or combined with platinum chemotherapy. Computed tomography was used to evaluate tumor growth for the respon...
