11 TREATMENT OF CANCER q SURGERY q CHEMOTHERAPY RADIOTHERAPY q

12 CHEMOTHERAPY Cancer cells Chemotherapy drugs target cancer cells because they are rapidly dividing DRUG Chemotherapy drug Cells destroyed Chemotherapy drugs enter the nucleus where they interfere with the DNA **CANCER CELLS may survive chemotherapy and resist further doses of Drugs. This is known as being refractory to chemotherapy!

13 BASIC QUESTIONS ASKED... IN CANCER THERAPY : CAN WE DEVELOP LESS TOXIC AGENTS THAN THE CURRENTLY AVAILABLE DRUGS,SPARING NORMAL CELLS and TISSUES? IS IT POSSIBLE TO DEVELOP NOVEL AGENTS BASED UPON CANCER CELL BIOLOGY?
