For the last 40 years the authors have collaborated on trying to understand the complexities of human cancer by formulating testable mathematical models that are based on mutation accumulation in human malignancies. We summarize the concepts encompassed by multiple mutations in human cancers in the context of source, accumulation during carcinogenesis and tumor progression, and therapeutic consequences. We conclude that the efficacious treatment of human cancer by targeted therapy will involve individualized, uniquely directed specific agents singly and in simultaneous combinations, and take into account the importance of targeting resistant subclonal mutations, particularly those subclones with alterations in DNA repair genes, DNA polymerase, and other genes required to maintain genetic stability.
