摘要

肝细胞癌（Hepatocellular carcinoma

HCC）是常见的恶性肿瘤之一

治疗手段有限。随着肝癌发生发展过程中关键基因和信号通路认识的深入

一些高选择性、低毒性的靶向药物不断问世

为晚期肝癌的治疗带来了多种选择。本文综述了肝细胞癌靶向治疗的代表性药物和潜在靶点的研究进展。

Abstract

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common malignancies

and its treatment is limited. With the understanding of key genes and signaling pathways in the occurrence and development of HCC

targeted drugs with high selectivity and low toxicity have been developed continuously

bringing a variety of options for the treatment of advanced HCC. In this article

the research progress on representative drugs of targeted therapy and potential therapeutic targets for HCC are reviewed.
