Therapy Resistance in Prostate Cancer: Mechanisms and Insights, Volume 20 highlights the main mechanisms that are responsible for therapy resistance in PCa allowing researchers and clinicians to have a synopsis of current options and therapies that can be proposed to overcome resistance. Understanding the mechanisms responsible for chemotherapy resistance helps researchers all over the world delve deeper into the pathways behind this resistance and potentially discover new therapeutic targets for PCa. Prostate cancer (PCa) is among the most diagnosed cancers in men worldwide, as well as one of the most common causes of cancer-related deaths.Despite the advances in treatment, the disease remains associated with poor survival and resistance to cytotoxic and targeted therapies.
Tackles the topic of resistance from a broader perspective, including, but not limited to, the role of the extracellular matrix and cancer stem cells in therapy resistanceCreates understanding on how to develop novel therapies that specifically target CSCs to eliminate the regenerating capacity of the tumor and overcome therapy resistanceHelps in identifying novel molecular biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets pertaining to the tumor microenvironment to overcome therapy resistanceProvides a general view of the main pathways involved in PCa progression that will aid in understanding the mechanisms responsible for chemotherapy resistance
