Hallmark: evading growth suppressors

Evading growth suppressors means cutting the brakes that normally stop division, p53 and RB above all.

TP53 (50% of cancers), RB1, CDKN2A (p16), PTEN, NF1, APC losses. CDK4/6 inhibitors re-impose the RB brake; MDM2 inhibitors and p53 reactivators try to restore p53; PTEN loss sensitises to AKT inhibition.
