Abstract

Dysregulation of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway has been observed in many human tumors and has been found to be implicated in the promotion of cancer cell growth and survival. Hence, the mTOR pathway is considered an important target of anticancer therapy. This paper focuses on the role of mTOR inhibition and on the recent developments of the mTOR inhibitor everolimus (RAD001) in this field.
