Abstract

Cancer is a complex entity with multiple components affecting a tumor growth, invasion and metastasis. Traditionally cancer treatments have focused on tumor cells. Microenvironment also has role in tumor behavior. Biological agents that target components of the tumor microenvironment may provide an alternative to traditional therapy. Because of the complexity of the tumor milieu the most beneficial therapy will likely involve the combination of one or more agents directed at the microenvironment.
