Abstract
Cancer is a global health issue that requires ongoing therapeutic advances. This review provides an overview of recent treatment strategies focusing on novel pathways in cancer therapy. Emerging research has unveiled promising targets that go beyond traditional modalities, offering new avenues for precision medicine and improved patient outcomes. One key area of innovation lies in targeted therapies directed at specific molecular pathways implicated in cancer progression. The identification of novel biomarkers has paved the way for the development of precision medicines tailored to individual patient profiles. Immunotherapy has also revolutionised cancer treatment by using the immune system to identify and remove cancer cells. Moreover, advancements in epigenetic therapies and RNA-based interventions demonstrate unprecedented potential in modulating gene expression and disrupting cancer-specific signalling pathways. We have discussed the pathophysiology of cancer, different immune checkpoint inhibitors, and targeted therapies in signalling therapies. The epigenetic modulators, such as Histone deacetylase (HDACs) inhibitors and DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) inhibitors, were studied. Recent breakthroughs in cancer immunotherapy treatment (CAR-T) cell therapy showcase the potential to enhance the immune response against various cancers; thus, related information was incorporated. Further, RNA-based therapies like RNA interference and mRNA-based vaccines and therapies, combination therapies, and novel therapies were discussed in the present article.
期刊介绍：
Current Cancer Drug Targets aims to cover all the latest and outstanding developments on the medicinal chemistry, pharmacology, molecular biology, genomics and biochemistry of contemporary molecular drug targets involved in cancer, e.g. disease specific proteins, receptors, enzymes and genes.
Current Cancer Drug Targets publishes original research articles, letters, reviews / mini-reviews, drug clinical trial studies and guest edited thematic issues written by leaders in the field covering a range of current topics on drug targets involved in cancer.
As the discovery, identification, characterization and validation of novel human drug targets for anti-cancer drug discovery continues to grow; this journal has become essential reading for all pharmaceutical scientists involved in drug discovery and development.
