Radiotherapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, how should cancer patients choose?

According to the physical condition, the doctor will formulate the most suitable ** plan according to the physical condition, and the target ** is the most reliable at present.

Cancer patients should choose chemotherapy when choosing, which is very effective and more beneficial to cancer patients.

It is necessary to make a choice according to the specific situation, it is not up to you to decide, let the doctor decide according to the condition, be calm, and don't be too anxious.

Radiotherapy is a method of controlling the malignant transformation of tumors, which can help patients prolong their lives and improve their quality of life, but not all tumors can use radiotherapy, radiotherapy is also a means of cancer, and the range of use is very wide, many cancer patients will use radiotherapy to control the disease, but some cancer cells are not very sensitive to other treatments, so they cannot achieve the desired curative effect, so some cancer patients are not suitable for radiotherapy, so let's discuss it together. Which cancer patients are not suitable for radiotherapy? <>

Worsening cancer. Because chemotherapy has a lot of problems, some patients' tissue cells will also be damaged by chemotherapy, so if there is severe chemotherapy damage, chemotherapy can no longer be performed, because it is easy to have radiation damage, and there is not much benefit to the patient. In addition, chemotherapy is not recommended for tumors with obvious malignant transformation, because after the tumor progresses, the body will experience severe dehydration and anemia, so it is necessary to wait until the body has recovered to a certain extent before chemotherapy can be performed.

Radioinsensitive tumors are also not candidates for chemotherapy. Chemotherapy is suitable for all tumors and cancers, but some tumors are not very sensitive to radiation, and if they are not sensitive, they will affect the effect, but will not remove all cancer cells, and it is likely to cause the increase of cancer cells again after the disease, so for tumors that are not sensitive to radiation, if chemotherapy is used, the effect is not obvious, and it will even lead to radiation damage. <>

Patients with metastases. Radiotherapy is targeted at local tumors, but the problem of tumor lesions with a large range cannot be solved, because the process of radiotherapy will also damage normal cells, but the problem of carcinogenesis in a larger range is not able to choose radiotherapy**, although there is a certain effect, but the harm to the body is greater, so in general, radiotherapy can not be carried out on patients with metastasis. <>

Radiotherapy itself has a certain amount of harm to the body, so it is necessary to treat radiotherapy rationally, if there is a patient with serious disease and needs to control the condition at an early stage, you can choose radiotherapy, but you still need to judge according to your actual situation and carry out it according to the doctor's guidance.

The effect of radiotherapy on tumors is still very large, and most of them are suitable for radiotherapy, but patients with large gastrointestinal, gallbladder, spinal cord and diffusion locations are not suitable, because it may cause gastric bleeding, the effect is not obvious, and severe paralysis may occur.

For patients who are sensitive to radiotherapy, patients with cancer cachexia are not suitable for this type of radiotherapy, because their bodies are very weak, and the cancer has metastasized in multiple places, and radiotherapy is not of great significance; For some esophageal cancers, cancers with complications are not suitable for radiotherapy**.

People with poor physique, people who have metastasized, people who are sensitive, people who are prone to bleeding, these people are not allowed. For example, melanoma , small bowel cancer, stomach cancer, osteochondrosarcoma.

This should be determined according to the physical condition, under normal circumstances, benign patients do not need to be like this, different tumor states are different, so there is no way to judge which tumors radiotherapy has a relatively large effect.

Targeting** is effective for both early- and late-stage cancer patients, not all cancer patients are suitable for targeting**, and only one-third of cancer patients are suitable for targeting**.

This one-third of people have patients with genetic mutations that have mutated certain genes in their bodies.

Because targeted drugs are only effective for tumor patients with related radical mutations, cancer patients without gene mutations who are not suitable for chemotherapy with targeted drugs are still their preferred drugs.

Targeting ** also has shortcomings, its effect is not 100%, and drug resistance will occur over time, which means that the tumor in the body of the tumor patient is not sensitive to targeted drugs, and the effect will get worse and worse, and even no effect in the end.

Moreover, the ** of targeted drugs is very expensive, which is difficult for ordinary families to afford, and the ** targeted drug is not the most perfect way.

During the ** period, you should also pay more attention to improving immunity, take good rest to ensure sufficient sleep time, pay attention not to eat greasy and spicy food, and eat more light and easily digestible food.

Chemotherapy drugs do not distinguish between friend and foe, whether they are normal cells or cancer cells, they kill together, so it is very large.

The advantage of targeting ** is that it can directly reach tumor cells and has obvious effects.

Liu Wei, "Stick to the End" has a detailed information about targeted drugs.

How is cancer**?

Generally speaking, there are 3 ways:

Targeting**: Only by selecting the corresponding molecular targeted drugs after relevant genetic testing can patients receive accurate and timely individualized treatment, and for patients who are not targeted drug design for gene mutations, they can avoid tying**or excessive**. Its weakness is that tumor cells will produce an escape mechanism, that is, tumor cells can escape the recognition and attack of the body's immune system through a variety of mechanisms, so as to survive and proliferate in the body.

Chemotherapy: Chemotherapy is the abbreviation of chemical drugs, which are used to kill cancer cells. Chemotherapy is a system-wide method, no matter what route is used to administer it (oral, intravenous and intravenous administration, etc.), chemotherapy drugs will spread to most organs and tissues throughout the body along with blood circulation.

Therefore, chemotherapy is the main means for some tumors with a tendency to spread throughout the body and intermediate and advanced tumors that have metastasized. Chemotherapy is currently one of the most effective means of cancer, and together with surgery and radiotherapy, it is called the three major methods of cancer.

Radiotherapy: Radiation to the tumor is a local method that uses radiation to the tumor. Radiation includes radioisotopes, rays, X-rays, electron beams, proton beams and other particle beams produced by various X-ray machines or accelerators.

About 70% of cancer patients need radiation during the course of their cancer, and about 40% of cancers can be treated with radiotherapy. The role and status of radiation in tumors have become increasingly prominent, and it has become one of the main means of malignant tumors.

However, we advocate that targeted** and chemotherapy should be carried out at the same time, and the effect is more significant.

Chemotherapy is rarely effective, and it is temporary, to put it bluntly, psychological placebo, and after a period of time, when a new cancer appears, you know that chemotherapy is the essence of cancer.

Ay. Knowing that there is no point of return, you still choose, why?

The incidence and mortality of lung cancer are getting higher and higher, and it is already the first cancer in China in terms of incidence and mortality.

The treatment of lung cancer currently includes surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, molecular targeting, and immunization.

Lung cancer targeting is one of the most important advances in the history of lung cancer.

Targeted drugs are like "biological missiles", which are drugs that can make drugs gather in target tissues, target organs, and target cells, so as to have good effects and less toxicity, and avoid the limitations and big problems of traditional chemotherapy drugs to a certain extent.

Moreover, targeted drugs can be taken orally, which is convenient to use and reduces the burden of hospitalization.

Since it's so good, is it okay for all lung cancer to directly target drugs**?

Of course not, doctorFirst of all, it is necessary to decide whether the patient can use targeted drugs according to the classification and stage of lung cancer

The main categories of lung cancer are non-small cell carcinoma (lung adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, etc.) and small cell carcinoma.

There are currently no effective targeted drugs for small cell carcinoma**, and targeted drugs are mainly used for non-small cell carcinomas.

At present, early stage (stage I, II) and most intermediate and advanced (stage III) lung cancers should follow the principle of **** (surgery, concurrent chemoradiotherapy, etc.), rather than choosing targeted drugs first**.

For patients with infeasible and advanced (stage IV) lung cancer, targeted agents may be considered first**.

Can all patients with incapacitated and advanced stage IV lung cancer be treated with targeted drugs?

The reason why it is called "targeted drugs" is because for targeted drugs to work, lung cancer needs to have a target that our targeted drugs (biological missiles) work on.

Therefore, doctors need to perform genetic testing for non-small cell carcinoma, and if there is a target of targeted drugs, they can use corresponding targeted drugs according to different targets**.
