Cancer Treatment
Cancer refers to a group of diseases characterised by the uncontrolled division and spread of abnormal cells, disrupting the body’s normal processes and functions.
Cancer is a genetic disorder that occurs when the genes responsible for managing cell activities change or mutate. However, being genetic does not necessarily mean it is always inherited. The disease develops when cells undergo abnormal mutations, forming clusters called tumours. Cancerous cells from tumours can break away and travel through the blood or lymphatic system to other parts of the body.
Cancer treatments generally include surgery to remove tumours, chemotherapy, hormone therapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy, bone marrow transplants, targeted drugs, and palliative care. Targeted drugs work by blocking the factors that help cancer cells grow and multiply.
