Summary
Until a decade ago, 5FU/leucovorin formed the mainstay of colorectal cancer treatment but Camptosar and Eloxatin quickly established themselves as components of gold-standard therapy. The advent of Avastin and Erbitux heralded a new era in the disease management, and the emergence of other molecular targeted agents should further push survival to an unprecedented level in the coming years.
There are today more than 240 therapeutics targeting colorectal cancer, from early preclinical to marketed drugs. Colorectal Drug Pipeline Update lists all drugs and gives you a progress analysis on each one of them. Identified drugs are linked to 130 different targets. These targets are further categorized on the CD-ROM by 46 classifications of molecular function and their possible belonging to 19 different signaling pathways in the cell. Read more below on how the Colorectal Drug Pipeline Update is organized.
