Plant-derived substances, or phytochemicals, have been used for treating many diseases from ancient times. In this chapter we give a broad overview of the phytochemicals that are used as drugs, with a focus on the drugs that are used in chemotherapy. We start with a classification of anticancer drugs and their use in chemotherapy.

2019It is well known for a long time that the same drugs have different efficacy in different patients due to variations in metabolism of the drugs. One of the reasons for these variations is the differences in genetic makeup of individuals. There may be variations in key inherited genes through germline cells from parents due to differences in copy ...
