Abstract

Cancer research and therapies have witnessed remarkable advancements in recent years, driven by innovations in molecular biology, genomics, and immunotherapy. This paper provides an overview of cutting-edge approaches to cancer diagnosis and treatment, focusing on precision medicine, targeted therapies, and immunotherapeutic interventions. Key topics include next-generation sequencing technologies for tumor profiling, biomarker discovery for patient stratification, and the development of novel anticancer agents, including small molecules and monoclonal antibodies. Additionally, the paper explores the role of immunotherapy in harnessing the immune system to recognize and eradicate cancer cells, highlighting recent breakthroughs in immune checkpoint inhibitors, chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy, and cancer vaccines. By synthesizing insights from basic science research and clinical trials, this paper aims to elucidate the promise and challenges of translating scientific discoveries into effective cancer treatments.
