Epigenetic Cancer Therapy: A Comprehensive Guide to the Future of Cancer Management

Epigenetic Cancer Therapy, Second Edition, is a groundbreaking publication that delves into the intricacies of healthy and aberrant epigenetic biology. This comprehensive guide provides insights into new discoveries that have significantly enhanced our understanding of cancer epigenetics and therapeutics. It covers large-scale intergovernmental initiatives, recent findings across cancer stem cells, rational drug design, clinical trials, and chemopreventative strategies.

The book serves as a testament to the evolving landscape of epigenetics, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic option in the future management of cancer. Since the publication of the first edition, the field of epigenetics has witnessed substantial growth, with new epigenetic therapies being designed and approved for clinical use. Moreover, our knowledge of the epigenome’s plasticity in cancer and disease has expanded dramatically, with increasing evidence linking pollution to epigenetic changes in cancer development.

This second edition has been fully updated to address these changes, including promising therapeutic programs such as CRISPR/Cas9 mediated approaches, CAR-T based therapies, epigenetic priming, histone modifications, and similar transformative advances across synthetic biology and cellular engineering. It provides a detailed overview of the following topics:

• Epigenetic biology and its role in cancer development
• Large-scale intergovernmental initiatives in epigenetics
• Recent findings in cancer stem cells and their implications
• Rational drug design and its applications in cancer therapy
• Clinical trials and their role in validating epigenetic therapies
• Chemopreventative strategies and their potential in cancer prevention
• CRISPR/Cas9 mediated approaches and their therapeutic potential
• CAR-T based therapies and their impact on cancer treatment
• Epigenetic priming and its role in enhancing cancer therapies
• Histone modifications and their significance in cancer biology
• Transformative advances in synthetic biology and cellular engineering

Epigenetic Cancer Therapy, Second Edition, is an indispensable resource for researchers, scientists, and healthcare professionals seeking to understand the complex interplay between epigenetics and cancer. It offers a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the field, making it an essential read for those interested in the future of cancer management.
