Cancer,one of the leading causes of human death,has attracted more attention due to the complexity of etiology,diagnosis,treatment and prognosis.In the past two centuries,once the pathologist said “it is cancer”,then every effort will be followed to eradicate cancer.Indeed,surgery,radiotherapy,chemotherapy and regional cancer therapies have resulted in marked improvement of cancer prognosis.With the rapid progress of molecular biology,novel treatment strategies such as molecular targeted therapy emerged,which are mainly aimed to eradicate cancer.Unfortunately,up to date,only very few cancer types had their 5-year overall survival rates exceed 50%.(1)
