Treatment

Medical Treatment

• Radiotherapy and chemotherapy alone or in combination are given to shrink the cancer or to prevent it from growing and spreading to other sites.
• Chemotherapy, radiotherapy and chemoradiotherapy are used after surgery (adjuvant) and now they are increasingly used prior to surgery (neoadjuvant).
• In some patients where surgery cannot be offered as a treatment option, medical treatment is very important to control the disease progression.
• Targeted therapy is another promising therapy especially in cancer that has spread to various other sites.
