This lecture covers the different types of cancer therapies, including surgery, chemotherapies, and radiotherapies. It delves into the mechanisms of action of chemotherapeutic agents, such as microtubule inhibitors and topoisomerase inhibitors. The lecture also discusses the limitations of chemotherapy, the concept of resistance, and the development of targeted therapies to block specific oncogenic proteins altered in cancer.
