Molecular targeted therapy of advanced gastric cancer / 国际肿瘤学杂志

ABSTRACT

Efficacy of chemotherapy for advanced gastric cancer is unsatisfactory. Molecular targeted therapies have emerged as a novel approach to the treatment of advanced gastric cancer in recent years.These therapeutic strategies include targeting EGFR signal transduction pathway,anti-angiogenesis therapy,multi-target molecular targeted drugs. Targeted drugs such as trastuzumab,cetuximab,bevacizumab,apatinib,sorafenib sunitinib,lapatinib and everolimus which are targeting HER2,EGFR,VEGF and mTOR pathway,are applied in the comprehensive treatment of advanced gastric cancer,and their therapeutic effects are encouraging.
