Cancer Surgery
Surgery is the oldest form of cancer treatment. About 60% of cancer patients will undergo surgery, either by itself or in combination with other therapies. When possible, surgery still offers the best chance for curative treatment outcome in many cancers. For more information on cancer surgery, click here.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy uses powerful drugs to kill cancer cells, control their growth, or relieve pain symptoms. Chemotherapy can be used in combination with other treatments to make sure all cancer cells have been eliminated. For more information on chemotherapy, click here.
Targeted Therapy
Research continues to search for and identify unique genes and proteins expressed in some cancers that give them dramatic advantages for growth and spread. Drugs that target and block the function of oncogenes or oncoproteins can incapacitate and kill addicted cancer cells much better than traditional therapies.
