MODERN THERAPEUTIC STRATEGIES FOR CLEVER TARGETING AND TREATMENT OF HEPATOCELLULAR CARCINOMA
Journal Title: World Journal of Pharmaceutical Research - Year 2019, Vol 8, Issue 6
Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma is known to be one of the most widespread cancers of all time and has led to death in most of its occurrences. Over the past few decades, different types of therapies have been exploited for treatment of this type of cancer. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy are two of the most widely explored and utilized forms of cancer therapy. When a patient is fortunate enough to have the disease discovered and diagnosed at early stages, the cancer is mostly removed through surgical procedures. However, conventional procedures like surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy, have been proven to have some shortcomings or limitations including DNA damage of healthy cells through radiation therapy, side effects like vomiting, fatigue and hair loss during chemotherapy and the usual dangers that come with surgical procedures. Various researches have been performed in recent times to improve the targeting and treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma. This aim of this review is to highlight some of these new innovations.
