The incidence of cancer from birth to 20 years of age is 18.7 per 100 000 and continues to increase. 1 Although mortality has steadily declined, cancer remains one of the leading causes of death from disease in pediatric patients. Targeted anticancer therapies are among the most recently developed agents to address this issue. 2 Key tenets of oncogenesis include uncontrolled cellular growth, tumor metastasis, and evasion of host defenses. 3 Targeted anticancer therapies are small-molecule drugs or monoclonal antibodies that interrupt oncogenesis through a variety of mechanisms (Figure 1). 4 They can act directly on cancer cells to affect cellular proliferation, differentiation, or apoptosis. 3,4 They may also inhibit tumor vasculature, reducing nutrients required for tumor growth or the potential for tumor metastasis. 3,4 Moreover, they may act on immune checkpoint proteins, activating the body's response to cancer. 3,4 This latter mechanism of action is known as targeted immunotherapy. 3-5 As the molecular basis of a specific cancer is uncovered, and particular signaling molecules are found to be upregulated, candidate targeted therapies provide greater specificity than traditional chemotherapy which non-selectively inhibits all rapidly dividing cells. This "precision medicine" has shifted treatment from using medications to target a class of diseases to choosing medications targeting the molecular pathways underpinning disease. Targeted therapies have different side-effect profiles than conventional cytotoxic agents, which were covered in Part I of this two-part series. 6,7 The adverse events (AEs) from targeted therapies may be limited to tissues uniquely targeted by these
