Updated to include the newest drugs and those currently in development, this Fourth Edition is a comprehensive reference on the preclinical and clinical pharmacology of anticancer agents. Organized by drug class, the book provides the latest information on all drugs and biological agents—their mechanisms of action, interactions with other agents, toxicities, side effects, and mechanisms of resistance. The authors explain the rationale for use of drugs in specific schedules and combinations and offer guidelines for dose adjustment in particular situations. This edition provides expanded coverage of monoclonal antibodies, molecularly targeted drugs, vaccines, cell based therapies, growth factors, and pharmacogenetics.

New England Journal of Medicine, Volume 18, Issue 355 -- "The editors have taken on the Herculean task of melding chemotherapy and biologic therapy, with an emphasis on clinical relevance. To a great degree, they have accomplished their goal. The chapters are up to date, considering the rapid changes in the field. There is extensive use of illustrations and tables, and summary tables in each chapter reinforce the central themes. The discussion of antibody therapy provides an excellent overview of the current state of functional mechanisms. This textbook will continue to be a resource for clinical oncologists, and it remains one of the essential readings for medical oncologists in training. The editors and contributors should be complimented on the results of their labors, which improve on their previous exceptional efforts."
