Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal publishes research on the development and evaluation of novel cancer therapeutics, including small-molecule inhibitors, antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), and bispecific ADCs. Studies focus on identifying therapeutic targets, understanding mechanisms of drug resistance, and assessing the efficacy of new agents in preclinical models and early clinical trials. The research also explores the role of the tumor microenvironment and immune responses in cancer treatment.
