Tumor Targeting: is a cancer treatment that uses drugs.... Targeted therapy works by targeting the cancer's specific genes, proteins, or the tissue environment that contributes to cancer growth and survival. These genes and proteins are found in cancer cells or in cells related to cancer growth, like blood vessel cells.
