Description
Abstract
Colorectal cancer is one of the leading causes
of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Although surgical
resection is still the only treatment capable of curing
colon cancer, adjuvant therapy continues to play an
important role in preventing recurrence and metastasis.
In recent years remarkable progress has been made in
the treatment of colon cancer. This review discusses
recent advances in adjuvant therapy for colon cancer,
including chemotherapy, immunotherapy, antiangiogenic
therapy and apoptosis induction. In the meantime,
molecular therapy is also elucidated in the above
methods. All these new advances will provide new
promises for patients of colon cancer.
