This document provides tips for using a PowerPoint presentation on cancer treatment principles: 1. The presentation can be freely downloaded, edited, and modified. Blank slides are included to engage students by asking what they know about each topic before presenting additional information. 2. An active learning session involves showing the blank slides, asking students questions, and then showing the next slide with answers over three revisions. 3. The presentation can also be used for self-study, with notes providing bibliographic references.

1. Tips on using my ppt.
1. You can freely download, edit, modify and put your
name etc.
2. Don’t be concerned about number of slides. Half the
slides are blanks except for the title.
3. First show the blank slides (eg. Aetiology ) > Ask
students what they already know about ethology of
today's topic. > Then show next slide which enumerates
aetiologies.
4. At the end rerun the show – show blank> ask questions >
show next slide.
5. This will be an ACTIVE LEARNING SESSION x
three revisions.
6. Good for self study also.
7. See notes for bibliography.

• II I+ Regional mobile L.Ns.
• III Locally advanced
• IV Mets +nt

5. Principles of Cancer Treatment
• Local Tt
• Systemic Tt
• Surgery
• Radiotherapy
• Chemotherapy
• Hormonal therapy
• Targeted Therapy
Treatment modalities

6. Principles of Cancer Treatment
• Early disease
(Stage I&II)
• Advanced Disease
(Stage III&IV)
• CurativeTt
– Local Tt followed by
Systemic Tt
• Palliative Tt
– Systemic followed by
Local Tt

7. Principles of Cancer Surgery

8. Principles of Cancer Surgery
• Curative
– Removal of diseased organ with regional LNs
enblock.
– Achieve tumor free margins.
• Palliative –Surgery is the best palliation
• Reconstruction is required.
• Recent trend is to limit surgery –
Lumpectomy followed by RT.

9. Principles of Radiotherapy

10. Principles of Radiotherapy
• Alternative to surgery
• Tt of residual disease
• Repeat RT is ineffective.

11. Advantages of radiotherapy

12. Disadvantages of RT
• adverse effects are common;
• cure is uncommon, especially for large
tumors; and
• subsequent surgery is more difficult and
hazardous and survival is reduced further.

13. Disadvantages of RT

14. Adverse effects of RT

15. Adverse effects of RT
• Oral mucositis
• Xerostomia
• loss of taste
• osteoradionecrosis

16. Principles of Chemotherapy

17. Principles of Chemotherapy
• Adjuvant CT –following curative surgery
• Palliative CT in inoperable disease- lower
dose.
• Neo-adjuvant CT- Before curative surgery

18. Recent Trend
• To Use Chemoradiotherapy as neo adjuvant
therapy
