Abstract

At the time of the first edition of Principles of Cancer Biotherapy in 1987, this book represented the first comprehensive textbook on biological therapy. In 1991, when the second edition was published, there was still some doubt on the part of many oncologists and cancer researchers as to the therapeutic value of these new approaches. By 2003 and the fourth edition, it was generally agreed that biopharmaceuticals were producing major opportunities for new cancer therapies. Cancer biotherapy has now truly matured into the fourth modality of cancer treatment. This fifth revised edition describes the tremendous progress that has been made in recent years using biologicals in cancer treatment. This book summarizes an evolving science and a rapidly changing medical practice in biotherapy. In this new millennium, it is now possible to envision a much more diversified system of cancer research and treatment that will afford greater opportunities for a patient’s personalized cancer treatment. This was first envisioned in the 1987 initial edition of this textbook and is now a "new" and popular approach to cancer treatment. Some forms of cancer biotherapy use the strategy of tumor stabilization and control though continued biological therapy, akin to the use of insulin in the treatment of diabetes. This textbook illustrates new methods of thinking and new strategies for control of cancer. It is always difficult to move from past dogma to future opportunity, but this fifth edition of Principles of Cancer Biotherapy illustrates why it is so important to the patients for researchers and clinicians to explore and quickly apply these new opportunities in cancer biotherapy.

Abstract

Biotherapy as defined by the International Biotherapy Society is the use of living organisms in the treatment and diagnosis of human diseases. Although modern day Western medicine has often little understanding for living creatures in daily medical practice, there is a long-standing tradition in many of the biotherapy modalities. This volume is an evocative exploration of the history, scientific basis and practical use of living organisms in medicine. The authors provide researchers and practitioners interested in this field, with cutting-edge material on the latest key advances in the following fields of biotherapy: Maggot Therapy: The use of blowfly larvae for chronic wound treatment Hirudotherapy: The application of medicinal leeches for extraction of blood from congested or inflamed tissues, in a wide range of pathologies Bee Venom Therapy: The use of honey bee venom for the treatment of inflammatory diseases Apitherapy: The use of bee products for numerous chronic ailments. Ichthyotherapy: The use of small fresh-water fish for dermatological conditions such as psoriasis Helminth Therapy: The use of nematode worms as agents for stimulation of host immunological responses appropriate for the alleviation of certain inflammatory diseases Phage Therapy: The therapeutic use of bacteriophages to treat bacterial infections Animal Assisted Therapy: The application of dogs and horses for people with physical, psychological, cognitive, social, and behavioral problems Canine Olfactory Detection: The training of dogs to recognize medical conditions such as cancer and diabetic crises In addition, the authors provide with their chapters an extensive bibliography that represents a state-of-the-art survey of the literature. Comprehensive and current, this fresh volume of reviews is an essential resource for professionals who need to stay ahead of the game in the exciting field of biotherapy.  .

Abstract

Les biomédicaments représentent une véritable révolution dans la prise en charge des maladies et des patients. Ils permettent de soigner, ou d'envisager de soigner à moyen terme, des pathologies graves que l'arsenal thérapeutique chimique traditionnel ne parvient pas toujours à traiter. Grâce à la connaissance sans cesse améliorée de la génétique et du fonctionnement des cellules, les scientifiques savent désormais concevoir des outils de soin plus ciblés. D'ores et déjà, ce sont 325 millions de patients qui ont bénéficié des biomédicaments tels que les interférons, les hormones recombi-nantes, les anticorps humanisés, ou encore les vaccins thérapeutiques ou préventifs. Cet ouvrage explique ce que sont les biomédicaments, et par extension les biothérapies. Il montre combien cette nouvelle approche de la médecine est porteuse d'avenir.
