description

The last decades have seen the identification of a number of drugs targeting oncogene pathways, therefore contributing to moving the cancer therapy field toward precision medicine. However, existing and acquired resistance to targeted therapies represent major obstacles against their long-term effectiveness. In fact, the initial efficacy of targeted therapies is often limited to a portion of the patient population and is frequently followed by the acquisition of drug-resistant disease.
