5 Preface There is little prospect of an immediate cure for cancer. The seeds of destruction seem to be sown within all of us, and there is no consensus about how these seeds develop into tumors or about what can be done to halt that development. Indeed, it is often difficult to find a consensus about any aspect of cancer research. The sharply conflicting views of investigators in different subdisciplines has been most aptly summarized by Charles Heidelberger of the McArdle Laboratory for Cancer Research, who argues that "the mechanism of cancer is a mirror into which each man looks and sees himself." This is true despite the fact that large infusions of money and manpower now come to the aid of cancer research. In late 1974, Betty Ford and Margaretta (Happy) Rockefeller underwent surgery for breast cancer. The extensive publicity surrounding these mastectomies provoked a great deal of interest in the subject of cancer, particularly breast cancer. Newspaper and television stories associated with the operations gave their audiences some insight into the nature of cancer and cancer research, but they provided only a glimpse of the sweeping changes that the directions of cancer research have undergone in the last few years. In large part, these changes simply reflect the natural progression of research, but there is little question that that progression was sharply accelerated by the National Cancer Act of 1971, which initiated what politicians then termed a "crusade against cancer." As a result of that act, the budget of the National Cancer Institute (NCI) more than tripled, from $190 million in 1970 to more than $600 million in Other sources will probably add half again as much. In v
6 vi PREFACE 1973, the last year for which complete figures are available, NCI's budget of $431 million accounted for some 58 percent of the $752 million available for cancer research and support. Other Federal agencies contributed $90 million, and state and local agencies provided $96 million. Voluntary agencies, primarily the American Cancer Society, contributed $95 million. Private research institutions and industry contributed about $22 million and $17 million, respectively. If the level of support from these other sources remains more or less constant, as is expected, the resources available for cancer programs in 1975 will total more than $920 million-making cancer the best-funded area of biological research in this country. Meanwhile, in biology there has been increasing emphasis on the study of mammalian cells, rather than on bacteria and other simpler organisms. Hence, with the increased cancer funding and the nearstagnation in support for most other types of biological research, many new investigators have been attracted to the study of cancer. A recent estimate from the National Institutes of Health indicates that some 7.7 percent of the total U.S. biomedical manpower pool-more than 7250 scientists-are working on projects that can be directly related to cancer and many more are working on projects that are peripherally related. The effect of these stimuli has been to produce distinct changes in emphasis within many of the subdisciplines of cancer research. In viral carcinogenesis research, for example, there has been a subtle shift from efforts to isolate a tangible human cancer virus to more sophisticated attempts to detect biochemical traces of such viruses in human tumors. In chemical carcinogenesis research, there has been a more marked shift away from simple screening and identification of possible carcinogens to a detailed examination of the interaction of chemical and cell. Investigation of the biochemistry of cancer has increasingly been focused on the role of cellular membranes in tumorigenesis and on the identification of tumor antigens that might permit earlier detection and more precise quantification of the disease. And there has been a strong trend in cancer therapy away from reliance on any single tool (such as surgery, irradiation, or drugs) toward a combined-modality approach and a renewed interest in stimulation of the body's own immune defenses. While no cure is on the horizon and no agreement has been reached on the likely cause or causes of cancer, there has been progress, and there
7 PREFACE vii is the promise of much more to come. This book assesses the status of cancer research and examines some of the areas where progress has been most apparent. While it cannot pretend to be either comprehensive or exhaustive, the book focuses on what appears to be some of the most interesting and significant developments in the drive to understand the molecular biology of cancer. The authors would like to thank Allen L. Hammond and Van R. Potter for their assistance in preparing two of the chapters, Fanny Groom for doing much of the typing, and their colleagues on the staff of Science for their enthusiasm and assistance. They would also like to thank Emmanuel Farber, Bernard Roizman, Elizabeth C. Miller, and Herbert Rapp for reviewing parts of the glossary. May 1,1975 THOMAS H. MAUGH II JEANL.MARx
