Reviving the role of MET in liver cancer therapy and vaccination: an autophagic perspective

Past failures in clinical trials have dampened the enthusiasm for studying the HGF receptor MET and postponed the development of MET-targeted drugs for cancer therapy. However, new evidence suggests that, at least in liver cancer, MET is still a promising therapeutic target, and may also be a potent...

description Past failures in clinical trials have dampened the enthusiasm for studying the HGF receptor MET and postponed the development of MET-targeted drugs for cancer therapy. However, new evidence suggests that, at least in liver cancer, MET is still a promising therapeutic target, and may also be a potential target for cancer vaccines. This paper briefly highlights novel research advances in this rapidly-evolving field in the perspective of autophagy, and discusses future directions for further investigation of MET-based cancer therapy and vaccination.
