Small-molecule targeted antitumor drugs are considered to be a promising treatment that can improve the efficacy and reduce side effects. PI3K/Akt signaling pathway is constantly activated in various cancers. We recently synthesized a series of novel compounds of PI3K/Akt pathway inhibitors and found the most effective analog to be W934. In this study, we explored the in-vitro and in-vivo antitumor effects of W934 on A549 non-small-cell lung cancer cells and HCT116 colorectal cancer cells. In-vitro...

ChoAbstractChemoresistance is one of the major challenges for the breast cancer treatment. Owing to its heterogeneous nature, the chemoresistance mechanisms of breast cancer are complicated, and not been fully elucidated. The existing treatments fall short of offering adequate solution to drug resistance, so more effective approaches are...

Opinion statement The symptom prevalence in patients with advanced cancer depends on the type of primary cancer, and the palliative treatment varies according to the nature of the primary cancer. Palliative treatment for unresectable skin cancer has not been fully discussed. Patients with unresectable skin cancer sometimes show the primary lesion in the skin and metastases to the lung, skin, liver, and bone. Pain, anorexia, and dyspnea commonly occur in such patients, and bleeding,...
