Chemotherapy is an effortless and frequently used approach in cancer therapy. However, most cases, it can only prolong life expectancy does not guarantee a complete cure. Furthermore, chemotherapy associated with severe adverse effects, one of the major complications effective In addition, newly published research outputs show that stem cells are involved disease progression, drug resistance, metastasis, recurrence they functional trans-differentiation capacity to response treatments. Novel strategies therefore required for better management The prime would be synthesize develop novel drugs need extensive resources, time, endurance brought into therapeutic use. subsequent screen anti-cancer activity available non-cancerous drugs. This concept repurposing non-cancer as alternative current therapy has become popular recent years because using existing anticancer several effects. Micronutrients have also been investigated due their significant effects negligible or no side availability food sources. this paper, we discuss ideal hypothesis screening activity, focus on clinical application treatment.

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy has garnered significant excitement due to its success for hematological malignancies in clinical studies leading the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of three CD19-targeted CAR products. In contrast, experience with solid tumors brain been less encouraging, only a few patients achieving complete responses. Clinical preclinical have identified multiple "roadblocks," including (1) limited array targetable antigens heterogeneous expression, (2) fitness survival before reaching tumor sites, (3) an inability cells efficiently traffic sites penetrate physical barriers, (4) immunosuppressive microenvironment. Herein, we review these challenges discuss strategies that investigators taken improve effector function adoptive immunotherapy tumors. Adoptive therapies utilizing expressing chimeric receptors (CARs) propelled forefront experimental their targeting range antigens, CD19, CD22, CD30, kappa, B maturation (BCMA).1Porter D.L.
