Kinase Inhibitors are specific enzymes which oppose the process of cell division and growth in cancerous cells. It comes handy in treatment of cancer by blocking the signals that notify a cell to divide and grow. In last few decades, there has been significant progress made in the development of cancer treatment such as chemotherapy. However, these drugs used cancer treatment have a restricted therapeutic index, also the result are only unpredictable, partial, brief, palliative as well as uncertain. In contrast, kinase inhibitor therapy which has recently been introduced is specifically targeted towards cancer molecules and signaling pathways. Such targets are normally found in tumor cells, resulting wider therapeutic index and minimum adverse effect.
