New therapies directed against a specific target, a protein or a membrane receptor located on the tumor cell recently shown, The first antidiana therapies were introduced intravenously administered monoclonal antibodies, however in recent years have witnessed a real "boom" with the development of a new family of oral targeted therapies, called tyrosine kinase inhibitors.
