Treatment of Cancer

There are numerous cancer therapy options available, each with a unique set of potential advantages, dangers, and adverse effects. People with slow-growing acute malignancies may be able to live with daily medication, but others with faster-growing slow-growing tumours may require more aggressive (intensive) therapies. Healthy stem cells are infused into the body during a stem cell transplant.

One of the anticancer medications that is used to obstruct and stop the growth of cancer cells in the body is chemotherapy. Radiation therapy kills cancer cells and relieves pain or discomfort. It might also be administered prior to a stem cell transplant.
