Abstract
Cancer chemoprevention uses noncytotoxic drugs or nutrients to prevent , retard, or delay carcinogenesis. The future of cancer chemopreventio n depends on understanding key cellular growth and proliferation-contr olling events, developing markers of molecular carcinogenesis, surroga te endpoint biomarkers, and targeted chemopreventative approaches.
