Cancer / Oncology
 
Cancer is a complex set of diseases characterised by unregulated cell growth and differentiation. Left uncontrolled, this process generally results in death. Each year, there are approximately seven million new cases of cancer world-wide and in the year 2000, cancer is projected to be the number one cause of death in industrialised countries, increasing both in incidence and prevalence. While new treatments are being developed, based on a wide range of novel mechanisms, there is still a tremendous unmet medical need.

The trends in future therapies closely follow those for antiviral and antibiotic medicines, where the new variety of combination therapies against well-defined targets may provide patients with improved therapeutic outcomes. As a leading health care company, Taj Pharmaceuticals is committed to discovering novel and effective therapeutic agents for the treatment of various cancers.
