AB Key  Points  Modern  cancer  therapy  is  multidisciplinary,  involving  coordinated  care  by  surgeons,  medical  oncologists,  radiation  oncologists,  reconstructive  surgeons,  pathologists,  radiologists,  and  primary  care  physicians.  Understanding  cancer  biology  is  essential  to  successfully  implement  personalized  cancer  therapy.  The  following  alterations  are  critical  for  malignant  cancer  growth:  self-sufficiency  of  growth  signals,  insensitivity  to  growth-inhibitory  signals,  evasion  of  apoptosis,  potential  for  limitless  replication,  angiogenesis,  invasion  and  metastasis,  reprogramming  of  energy  metabolism,  and  evading  immune  destruction.
