CONVENTIONAL CANCER THERAPIES
Halsted’s Radical Mastectomy vs ‘Lumpectomy’
3-D structure & schematic of p- glycoprotein
Examples: MethotrexateEg. Doxorubicin Eg. Cyclophosphoramide, Melphalan Eg. Vinblastine, paclitaxel
Newer Approaches to Cancer Therapy Incorporate Predictive Diagnosis Are Mechanism Based Designed for Selectivity
