As our understanding of cancer pathophysiology has increased, so have the number of targeted therapeutic agents available. By targeting specific molecules involved in tumorigenesis, targeted therapeutic agents offer the potential for significant efficacy against tumor cells while minimizing the adverse effects. We highlight the recently recognized ophthalmic complications of targeted cancer therapy, as well as recently recognized complications of traditional chemotherapeutic agents.
随着我们对癌症病理生理学的理解不断加深,可用的靶向治疗药物数量也在增加。通过靶向参与肿瘤发生的特定分子,靶向治疗药物有望在最大限度减少不良反应的同时,对肿瘤细胞产生显著疗效。我们重点介绍了靶向癌症治疗最近才被认识到的眼部并发症,以及传统化疗药物最近才被认识到的并发症。
