Synopsis: Cancer continues to be a major global health challenge. Recent breakthroughs in molecular biology and multi-omics technologies have revolutionized the understanding of disease pathology and treatment modalities. Molecular Targets in Cancer Therapy is a cutting-edge resource that explores the rapidly evolving landscape of targeted cancer treatments, offering critical insights into the molecular mechanisms driving tumors growth and progression. This comprehensive book brings together contributions from leading cancer researchers who examine a wide range of molecular targets— that are involved in hallmarks of cancer, i.e. cell signalling pathways, angiogenesis, cell death pathways, epithelial mesenchymal transitions, telomerase, immune signalling, metabolic attributes etc. Each chapter delves into the biological rationale, current therapeutic strategies, and clinical implications of targeting these molecules, offering readers both foundational knowledge and the latest advances in the field.
