Summary
The spectrum of gastroenteropancreatic tumors is continuously enlarged, from their microscopic architecture to therapeutic challenges. Although the era of molecular biology is evolving, few molecular therapeutic options are available for their cure. The present special issue aims to include new perspectives on these tumors, from biomarkers to clinical aspects and trials. The papers should highlight the multidisciplinary approach to the tumors of the gastrointestinal tract, along with pancreatic cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma, or gallbladder tumors. Experimental research is also welcome. The final aim is to show a picture of the old and new concepts for approaching gastroenteropancreatic tumors, from tumorigenesis to oncologic therapy.
