1. Surgery
Purpose: Remove the tumor and surrounding tissue.
Types:
Curative surgery (to remove cancer completely).
Palliative surgery (to relieve symptoms).
2. Radiation Therapy
Purpose: Use high-energy particles or waves to destroy or damage cancer cells.
Types:
External beam radiation (from outside the body).
Internal radiation (brachytherapy).
3. Chemotherapy
Purpose: Use of drugs to kill cancer cells or stop their growth.
Administration: Can be given orally, intravenously, or via injection.
Side Effects: Nausea, fatigue, hair loss, etc.
4. Immunotherapy
Purpose: Boost the body’s natural defenses to fight cancer.
Types:
Monoclonal antibodies.
Immune checkpoint inhibitors.
5. Targeted Therapy
Purpose: Target specific molecules involved in cancer growth and progression.
Examples: Tyrosine kinase inhibitors, PARP inhibitors.
6. Hormone Therapy
Purpose: Block or lower the amount of hormones in the body to slow or stop the growth of cancer.
Used for: Hormone-sensitive cancers (e.g., breast and prostate cancer).
7. Stem Cell Transplant
Purpose: Replace damaged bone marrow with healthy stem cells.
Used for: Certain types of blood cancers (e.g., leukemia, lymphoma).
Conclusion
Cancer treatment is often a combination of these modalities, tailored to the individual patient's needs. Ongoing research and clinical trials continue to improve treatment options and outcomes.
