36. Chemotherapy
Drugs used to kill cancer cells; disrupt some
aspect of cell division.
Toxic to healthy cells; hair, bone
marrow, lymphocytes, and epithelial cells of
intestinal lining .
Side effects include hair
loss, nausea, vomiting, and reduced immune
responses.
37. Radiation therapy
High-energy rays are used to kill cancer cells
Stop them from growing and dividing.
radiotherapy is a local treatment; it can affect
cancer cells only in the treated area.
side effects-
Tiredness, skin reactions such as rash or
redness, and loss of appetite.
Temporary lowering of the WBC count.
38. Surgery therapy
In localized cancer surgery typically attempts
to remove the entire mass.
Biological therapy/immunotherapy
Monoclonal antibodies, interferon, interleukin-
2, and colony-stimulating factors.
Side effects - Temporary flu-like symptoms
such as fever and chills, muscle aches and
weakness, loss of appetite and diarrhea.
39. Recently launched drugs-
Axitinib (Inlyta) for advanced kidney cancer.
Vismodegib (Erivedge) for advanced basal cell
carcinoma.
Carfilzomib (Kyprolis) for multiple myeloma.
Ziv-aflibercept (Zaltrap) in combination with
chemotherapy for metastatic colon cancer.
Regorafenib (Stivarga) for metastatic colorectal
cancer .
40. PREVENTION
Eating a healthy diet.
Exercising regularly.
Limiting alcohol.
Maintaining a healthy weight.
Minimizing your exposure to radiation and toxic
chemicals.
Not smoking or chewing tobacco
Reducing sun exposure, especially if you burn easily.
41. CONCLUSION
Hence cancer is second leading cause of deaths following
heart diseases one should care about its prevention before
the occurrence of disease by varies examinations and if
disease is already exists then one should go for its regular
treatment. Recent treatment mainly includes radiation
therapy, cell based immunotherapy, gene
therapy, chemotherapy are most widely used methods used
for treatment of various type of cancers.
