Chemotherapy

Chemotherapy harnesses potent medications to target and eliminate rapidly dividing cells in the body, a crucial strategy in the treatment of malignancies. Given that cancer cells exhibit a higher rate of growth and replication than most normal cells, chemotherapy serves as a vital tool in impeding their progression. An array of chemotherapy drugs is at our disposal, offering versatility in tailoring treatment plans.

The administration of chemotherapy is generally straightforward. While some medications may induce a slight burning sensation upon entering the vein, this discomfort is typically minor and tends to alleviate as the infusion progresses. The paramount objective of chemotherapy is to selectively target and eradicate cancer cells, allowing for a more effective and targeted approach in the fight against cancer.

Targeted therapy of Haematological Malignancies

Targeted therapy represents an innovative approach to cancer treatment, employing drugs designed to specifically target the genes and proteins integral to the growth and survival of cancer cells. This precision-based treatment can influence the tissue environment conducive to the growth and survival of hematological malignancies. Additionally, targeted therapy has the capability to focus on specific cells associated with cancer growth, including blood vessel cells, providing a more tailored and effective strategy in the battle against cancer.

Chemotherapy of Solid Tumors

Chemotherapy stands as a cornerstone in cancer treatment, employing a standardized regimen of one or more anti-cancer drugs to combat the disease. This potent approach utilizes powerful chemicals to target and eliminate fast-growing cells throughout the body. In the context of advanced-stage breast cancer, chemotherapy plays a pivotal role by aiming to destroy or damage cancer cells as comprehensively as possible, impacting the entire body to maximize its effectiveness in the battle against this challenging disease.

Targeted Therapy of Solid Tumors

Targeted therapy represents an advanced cancer treatment method utilizing drugs to precisely target specific genes and proteins crucial for the growth and survival of cancer cells. This innovative approach extends its application to the treatment of solid tumors in various organs, including the breast, prostate, colon, and lung. Targeted therapy demonstrates its efficacy by influencing the tissue environment conducive to cancer growth and survival, and it can also specifically target cells associated with cancer progression, such as blood vessel cells. This tailored strategy marks a significant advancement in the pursuit of more effective and focused cancer treatments.

Immunotherapy of Solid Tumors

Immunotherapy, also known as biological therapy, is a revolutionary cancer treatment designed to enhance your body’s natural defense mechanism against cancer. The immune system, comprised of white blood cells and various organs and tissues within the lymph system, plays a pivotal role in combating infections and diseases. Immunotherapy harnesses the power of the immune system to target and eradicate cancer cells. This cutting-edge approach is particularly beneficial in the treatment of lung cancer, skin cancers like melanoma, kidney cancer, bladder cancer, head and neck cancers, and lymphoma. By leveraging the body’s own defenses, immunotherapy represents a promising frontier in the fight against cancer.

Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, commonly referred to as a Bone Marrow transplant, is a medical procedure undertaken to replace bone marrow that has been compromised or eliminated due to disease, chemotherapy, or infection. This intricate process involves the transplantation of blood stem cells, which have the remarkable ability to migrate to the bone marrow. Once in the marrow, these stem cells initiate the production of new blood cells, fostering the regeneration and growth of healthy bone marrow. This procedure serves as a critical intervention in restoring the body’s capacity for blood cell production and is often employed in the treatment of various hematological disorders and certain types of cancers.

Personalized anti-cancer therapy

Personalized medicine represents a groundbreaking approach that tailors medications or drugs based on an individual patient’s molecular analysis, aiming to effectively manage their health condition. At the core of this strategy lies genomics, which unravels the molecular foundation of any disease within a specific individual.

In the realm of cancer treatment, personalized medicine emerges from extensive studies of human genes and the genetic composition of various cancers. The distinctive feature of personalized cancer medicine lies in its potential to minimize side effects compared to other treatment modalities. This is achieved through the design of treatments that are highly specific. By targeting the unique genetic makeup of an individual’s disease, personalized treatments may impact healthy cells to a lesser extent while exerting a more focused effect on cancer cells. This precision-oriented approach heralds a new era in healthcare, offering the promise of enhanced efficacy and reduced side effects in the pursuit of optimal patient outcomes.

Tumour boards

A Tumor Board Review is a collaborative and multidisciplinary process where teams of expert physicians convene to thoroughly examine and discuss complex cases involving patients diagnosed with cancer. This assembly comprises doctors and healthcare professionals from diverse specialties, coming together regularly at the hospital to collectively review and address intricate cancer cases while sharing their expertise and insights.

The primary objective of the Tumor Board is to discern and formulate the most optimal cancer treatment and care plan for each individual patient. By leveraging the collective knowledge and perspectives of specialists from various fields, the board aims to tailor comprehensive and well-informed strategies that align with the unique needs of each patient. This collaborative effort ensures that patients receive the benefit of a collective pool of medical expertise, ultimately enhancing the quality and effectiveness of cancer treatment plans.
