TAILIEUCHUNG - Mesothelioma treatment: Are we on target? A review

Targeted treatment is a therapy directed at a specific molecular target close to a hallmark of cancer. The target should be measurable with a biomarker and measurement of the target should correlate with clinical outcome when targeted treatment is administered. Current clinical guidelines do not recommend targeted or biological therapy in MPM. However, since these recommendations came out, new agents have been investigated in MPM. This review updates the use of targeted and biological treatment in patients with mesothelioma. | Journal of Advanced Research 2015 6 319-330 Cairo University Journal of Advanced Research REVIEW Mesothelioma treatment Are we on target CrossMark A review Birgitta I.
