This approach aims to trigger the natural process of cell death in cancer cells, which can prevent their growth and spread.
There are several different methods of inducing apoptosis in cancer cells, including chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and targeted therapies that activate specific pathways in cancer cells. Some emerging therapies also focus on stimulating the immune system to recognize and attack cancer cells, leading to apoptosis. The goal of apoptosis-inducing cancer therapy is to selectively kill cancer cells while sparing healthy cells, minimizing side effects and improving outcomes for patients.
