Abstract
Executive Summary
There are today more than 90 therapeutics targeting liver cancer, from early preclinical to marketed drugs. Liver Cancer Drug Pipeline Update lists all drugs and gives you a progress analysis on each one of them. Identified drugs are linked to 67 different targets. These targets are further categorized on the CD-ROM by 32 classifications of molecular function and with pathway referals to BioCarta, KEGG and NetPath. Read more below on how the Liver Cancer Drug Pipeline Update is organized.
