Smart Drug Therapy

Smart Drug Therapy

Cancer occurs with uncontrolled proliferation as a result of changes (mutations) in the genetic structure of normal body cells. Cancer cells that occur with uncontrolled proliferation; show the ability to grow, develop and spread. In each type of cancer, mutations can cause changes in the cells specific to the respective type of cancer. As scientists began to explore these changes and the knowledge about cancer increased, targeted therapy in the treatment of cancer began to gain importance. Smart medicine, which is one of the most important tools of targeted therapy, aims to prevent the uncontrolled proliferation and spread of cancer cells. The use of smart drugs containing molecules that try to stop these properties acquired by mutations is a method that is gradually increasing its importance in the treatment of cancer.
