Individualized cancer chemotherapy (ICC) has been designed to meet the requirement of selecting anticancer drugs in clinics and attracting increasing attentions in medical circle and will show more beneficial outcome in the future if we stick on these researches. Personalized Cancer Chemotherapy addresses and reviews this issue by discussing many existing specific strategies of ICC, including drug sensitivity testing, cancer biomarker detections, cancer biomarker-oriented therapy, anticancer drug pharmacogenetics, cancer metastasis therapy, anticancer drug combinations, assistant therapy, matWoodhead Publishing series in biomedicine.ChemotherapyCancerTreatmentChemotherapy.CancerTreatment.615.58Lu Da-Yong1713291MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910822907703321Personalized cancer chemotherapy4106160UNINA
