Tumor Impact Factor

A tumor is an abnormal growth of body tissue. Tumors can be cancerous or non-cancerous. The development of new biological drugs in the treatment of cancer has recently renewed the concept of "tumor heterogeneity". The effects of the new targeted therapy, such as angiogenesis inhibitors and anti-vascular therapies, are more complex than the well-known cytotoxic drugs. Intra- and inter-tumor heterogeneity, heterogeneity between metastatic diseases, as well as heterogeneity which occurs over time, profoundly influence the outcome of the treatment of patients. Currently, custom medicine relies heavily on pathological characterization of the tumor by biopsies, but we should have several biopsies of the same tumor in the same patients, to study the dedifferentiation of a metastatic disease under treatment.
