A fundamental focus of cancer treatment, medical oncology manages and treats cancer using systemic medicines like chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy. Medical oncology treats cancer all across the body, unlike surgery or radiation, which concentrate on certain locations; hence, it is vital for treating advanced, metastatic, or blood malignancies.
Although chemotherapy uses cytotoxic chemicals to kill fast-growing cancer cells, it can also affect healthy cells and lead to side effects such as nausea and tiredness. For many tumours, however, chemotherapy is still quite successful and sometimes used in concert with other treatments.
Using the body's immune system, immunotherapy seeks and kills cancer cells. For diseases including melanoma, lung cancer, and other blood cancers, it has transformed treatment; for some patients, it provides long-term results.
With targeted therapy, which concentrates on particular genetic or molecular changes in cancer cells, fewer side effects than conventional chemotherapy are possible.
Medical oncologists tailor treatment programs based on the type, stage, and genetic makeup of cancer to maximize efficacy and improve survival outcomes.
