Targeted Drug Strategies for Cancer and Inflammation

The discoveries highlighted in this book parallel the emergence of innovative “molecular targeted” small molecules and monoclonal antibodies, i.e. agents that target proteins within highly activated signal transduction pathways that control proliferation.  Many of the tumor-targeted strategies descr...
