This is a brief overview of the development of cancer therapy with a focus on systemic therapy. The modern era of chemotherapy developed at Yale University Medical School during World War II, a fact that has been generally unrecognized until recently. The observations preceding and involved in the discovery of effective drugs for cancer seem particularly pertinent for this anniversary year.
这是一篇关于癌症治疗发展的简要概述,重点是全身治疗。化疗的现代时代是在第二次世界大战期间于耶鲁大学医学院发展起来的,这一事实直到最近才被普遍认识到。在发现癌症有效药物之前及过程中的观察结果,在这个周年纪念年似乎尤为相关。
