Drug Resistance in Canceria, and testicular cancer can be achieved with salvage chemotherapy, relapses in most cancer patients are associated with development of drug resistance and lack of durable second remissions. Understanding the mechanisms involved in the development of clinical drug resistance is essential for the design of rational, effective salvage therapy.

Drug Delivery to Brain Tumorsre almost always fatal. The median survival time following surgery and radiation therapy for primary brain tumors is approx. 7.5–9.5 months. The prognosis for patients with metastatic brain tumors is even more pessimistic: median survival time is approx. 4–6 months after surgery and/or radiation therapy.

Biologic Response Modifiers in Cancer Therapytive new cancer treatments both alone and in combination with the established forms of cancer therapy—surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy. In addition, these agents and approaches are providing, and should continue to provide, enhanced understanding of cancer cell biology, with resultant novel approaches to cancer therapy.
