Ecological and evolutionary dynamics to design and improve ovarian cancer treatment
•Tumours are ecosystems in which cancer and non-cancer cells interact and evolve in complex and dynamic ways. | |
•Conventional therapies for ovarian cancer inevitably lead to the development of resistance because they fail to consider tumours’ heterogeneity and cellular plasticity. | |
| •Eco-evolutionarily designed therapies should consider cancer cell plasticity and patient-specific characteristics to improve clinical outcome and prevent relapse. |
