Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
For several decades, cancer has been a rapidly growing health problem all over the world. Antitumor therapy has evolved from traditional cytotoxic chemotherapy to selective targeted therapy and antibody-based cancer immunotherapy that target not only the cancer cells but also the cancer microenvironment.
This Special Issue aims to present therapeutic targets in antitumor therapy, including monoclonal antibodies, new synthetic drugs acting on new therapeutic targets, and the creation of controlled pharmaceutical formulations containing several active ingredients of both synthetic and natural origin. This Special Issue welcomes both review papers and original research works.
Prof. Dr. Carmela Saturnino
