Cancer is an evolutionary process and its research has attracted experts from a broad range of disciplines. A physically integrated team of interdisciplinary scientists can produce an integrative oncology view of cancer progression. Examining mathematical models of oncology and validating their findings by experimental and clinical observations seems to be a promising way forward, provided that the models portray correct molecular dynamics. A quick overview of different cancer types, different treatment strategies at different stages is provided in this letter, by keeping in view the epidemiological behaviour of this class of diseases.
