The journal covers developments in "medicinal chemistry and rational drug design for the discovery of anti-cancer agents" and publishes original research reports and review papers. [1] It is related to the journal Current Medicinal Chemistry and was established in 2001 as Current Medicinal Chemistry – Anti-Cancer Agents. [2]
This list of over 500 monoclonal antibodies includes approved and investigational drugs as well as drugs that have been withdrawn from market; consequently, the column Use does not necessarily indicate clinical usage.
