| Chemotherapy Uses | 1) Advanced Disease: No other tx possible. Chemo alone. Metastatic disease. Improve QOL. 2) Localized disease: Chemo + radiation. Neo-Adjuvant therpay. Other tx available but not totally effective. Anal, bladder, esophagea, laryngeal Ca 3) Adjuvent therapy: Surgery + radiation. REduce systemic and local effects and imrpove patient survival. Breast, Lung, Colon, Gastric, Wilm's tumor, Astrocytoma |
| Primary Resistance | No response with drug therapy indicates towards a primary resistance (Malignant melanoma, renal cell cancer, and brain cancers). as been blamed on loss of p53 Tumor suppressor gene |
| Acquired Resistance | In response to exposure of chemotherapeutic agent. Usually a multidrug resistance occurs. Increased expression of MDR1 gene in certain tumors |
