ONCSC 6700 - 003 Sem-Cell & Molec Biol


ROOM TBD Mutationally-activated proto-oncogenes are key drivers of many common malignancies including melanoma, lung, pancreatic, breast and colorectal cancers. Moreover, oncoprotein-targeted therapeutics continue to have a dramatic impact on the treatment of these otherwise lethal diseases. Through review of the primary literature, this discussion course will examine the: 1. Origins of our knowledge of the genetic and biochemical basis of "Oncogene Addiction"; 2.Subsequent development of oncoprotein-targeted cancer therapeutics; 3. Critical importance of drug resistance in understanding the mechanism(s) of cancer drug activity and; 4. Importance of combination therapy to deepen and extend the durability of patient’s clinical response. By the end of the course, students will have a thorough grounding on the history of oncogenes and the prospect(s) for future cancer cures based on oncoprotein pathway-targeted therapies.
