1 Strategies to improve anti tumor effectiveness of radiotherapy Eric Deutsch MD PhD Institut Gustave Roussy Villejuif, France

2 Classical view : radiosensitization. DNA damage modification Inhibition of DNA repair Cell cycle redistribution Radiosensitization.. Nucleotide depletion Increase in PA02 Apoptosis induction

3 Biological view.. Hypoxic targeting Apoptosis induction Antiangiogenesis Radiosensitization COX-2 inhibition Tumor suppresor genes replacement Tyrosin kinase inhibition
