Abstract:
Tumorigenesis and development are essential evolutionary processes that include tumor cell selection,mutual competi-tion,and environmental adaptation.The exploration of evolution theory provides newer ideas and theoretical basis for cancer treat-ment.This paper reviews the methods,curative effect,and possible problems of three treatment strategies based on evolutionary fac-tors,ecological concepts,and microenvironment,shedding new light on precision tumor treatment.
