Although progress has been made in the early detection of cancer, and
in improved treatment options once cancer is diagnosed, there are still
many cancers, including mesothelioma, which can not be cured and remain
difficult to treat effectively.
In recent years, researchers have
learned a great deal about how cancer cells differ from normal cells
and, in an effort to find drugs without the potentially severe side
effects of chemotherapy, have now discovered drugs which target the
tumor itself while sparing the body’s normal cells. One such group are
the anti-angiogenesis drugs.
