Abstract:

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is the sixth most common cause for cancer-related mortality worldwide. Personalized medicine of targeted drugs combined with classical radiotherapy and chemotherapy after surgery is expected to improve therapeutic efficacy and prolong survival rate of patients. It is known that increasing activation of PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway in HNSCC plays a central role to drive tumorigenesis and cancer metastasis. This article will explore the potential molecular mechanisms of individual differences in PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway applied in targeted therapy, the progress and current dilemmas of clinical trials, to provide a scheme for clinical treatment strategies to improve the life quality of the patients.

Key words: Head and neck neoplasms, Carcinoma, squamous cell, Molecular targeted therapy, PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway
