Combination Therapy in Cancer Treatment

Combination therapy, involving the synergistic use of multiple drugs, has shown promising results in enhancing therapeutic effects, overcoming drug resistance, and improving patient survival rates. Researchers from Gilead Sciences and the Center for Molecular Medicine and Immunology demonstrated the significant anti-tumor effects of Sacetuzumab Govitakan, an anti-trop 2-SN38 antibody drug conjugate, in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy. This innovative approach targets multiple solid tumors and triggers DNA damage and apoptosis in cancer cells, showing potential for more effective cancer treatment.
