What are some of the latest breakthroughs in cancer drug development?
Recent breakthroughs in cancer drug development have focused on targeted therapy, immunotherapy, and gene therapy. Targeted therapies are designed to attack specific cancer cells without harming normal cells, and new drugs are continuously being developed to target a wide range of cancer types. Immunotherapy, which harnesses the body's immune system to fight cancer, has seen significant advances with the development of checkpoint inhibitors and CAR T-cell therapies. Gene therapy is also gaining traction, with innovative approaches to correct or modify genes responsible for cancer progression.
