Abstract

Colorectal cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Novel drugs have been approved for the treatment of chemo-refractory metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients, however, despite their clinical approval, the success rates are highly variable. RENCA Macrobeads (RMBs), a form of biological-systems based therapy for the treatment of mCRC has been tested in a clinical trial setting. RMBs adapt to the cancerous environments through the regulation of biochemical pathways and the release of anti-neoplastic factors leading to a positive therapeutic response and improved survival in mCRC patients.
