Several studies have proposed that the senescence response evolved as a fail-safe mechanism to protect cells from cancer.

Stress induced senescence occurs in response to DNA damage and has emerged as a potent cancer therapy where the tumor-suppressive potential of senescence could be used to aid in treating the disease.
