Area of Science:
- Oncology
- Cancer Treatment Modalities
Background:
- Carcinoma treatment has evolved towards integrated approaches.
- Current strategies address both early-stage and advanced disease.
Purpose of the Study:
- To review current multidisciplinary treatment strategies for carcinoma.
- To discuss promising therapeutic methods in oncology.
Main Methods:
- Review of adjuvant studies for early-stage carcinoma.
- Analysis of combined radiotherapy and chemotherapy for advanced carcinoma.
- Discussion of novel treatment modalities.
Main Results:
- Multidisciplinary care is standard for carcinoma.

02:49Cancer Therapies
Cancer therapies are various modes of treatment, such as surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy that are administered to cancer patients.
However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...

02:57Targeted Cancer Therapies
The targeted cancer therapies, also known as “molecular targeted therapies,” take advantage of the molecular and genetic differences between the cancer cells and the normal cells. It needs a thorough understanding of the cancer cells to develop drugs that can target specific molecular aspects that drive the growth, progression, and spread of cancer cells without affecting the growth and survival of other normal cells in the body.

02:56Treatment Resistant Cancers
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States. A cancer cell is genetically unstable and hence can mutate faster. They can also modify their microenvironment and escape immune surveillance. The difficulties in treating cancer are further compounded by the emergence of rapid resistance to anticancer drugs. The most common ways to attain resistance in cancer cells include alteration in drug transport and metabolism, modification of drug target, elevated DNA damage response, or...
