Addressing the difference

Classic concept of cancer National Cancer Institute Understanding Cancer and Related Topics Understanding Cancer Normal cell division Cell Suicide or Apoptosis Cell damage— no repair Cancer cell division Cancer arises from a loss of normal growth control. In normal tissues, the rates of new cell growth and old cell death are kept in balance. In cancer, this balance is disrupted. This disruption can result from uncontrolled cell growth or loss of a cell’s ability to undergo cell suicide by a process called“apoptosis.” Apoptosis, or “cell suicide,” is the mechanism by which old or damaged cells normally self-destruct. First mutation Second mutation Third mutation Fourth or later mutation Uncontrolled growth NCI Web site: http://cancer.gov/cancertopics/understandingcancer

What if the cancer is not homogenous?

Early finding of intratumor heterogeneity in lung cancer Twenty-one patients with recurrent EGFR mutation positive lung cancer Surgical specimens were retrieved from archive Using laser capture microdissection and analyzed 50–60 areas from each tissue Fifteen tissues consisted only of cells with EGFR mutations Six tissues contained both mutated and non-mutated cells. Taniguchi K, Cancer Sci, 2008 May;99(5):929-35

Combination strategy for heterogeneous tumor Chemotherapy is standard cytotoxic for adenocarcinoma Adenocarcinoma has a higher incidence of harboring driver oncogene, especially among the non-smoker adenocarcinoma Cancer patient may have heterogeneous mix of tumor with or without the driver oncogenes We need a rational approach to “Chemotherapy + Targeted Therapy”

Intercalated combination of Chemotherapy + EGFR TKI
