Abstract:
Causes of cancer pain are multifactorial and complex.It is an important challenge for the clinicians on how to control cancer pain effectively.Opioids remain the most effective analgesics used in the treatment of cancer pain.But the adverse effects and potential risks associated with chronic use have been paid attention to in clinical work.It is related to molecular discoveries of opioid action that lead to the development of new opioid analgesic on potential new targets in treating cancer pain.Meanwhile, non-pharmacological treatments such as neuromodulation and minimally invasive interventional techniques play an important role in management of cancer pain.It is summarized in this article about the recent advances in biology and management of cancer pain.
