How to treat lung cancer?
The treatment for lung cancer depends on several factors, including the stage of the cancer, the type of lung cancer, and the patient's overall health.
Some common treatment options include:
1. Surgery: This is often the preferred treatment for early-stage lung cancer.
The surgeon removes the tumor and a small portion of healthy tissue around it.
2. Radiation therapy: High-energy radiation is used to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors.
It can be used alone or in combination with other treatments.
3. Chemotherapy: This treatment uses drugs to kill cancer cells.
It can be given intravenously or or orally, and is often used in combination with other treatments.
4. Targeted therapy: This treatment targets specific genes or proteins that contribute to the growth and survival of cancer cells.
It is often used for advanced or metastatic lung cancer.
5. Immunotherapy: This treatment helps the immune system recognize and attack cancer cells.
It is often used for advanced or metastatic lung cancer.
6. Photodynamic therapy: This treatment uses a light-activated drug to kill cancer cells.
It is often used for early-stage lung cancer.
7. Proton therapy: This is a type of radiation therapy that uses protons instead of x-rays to deliver radiation to the tumor.
It is often used for early-stage lung cancer.
8. Clinical trials: Patients may be eligible to participate in clinical trials testing new treatments or combinations of treatments.
It is important to discuss the best treatment options with a healthcare team, as the most effective treatment plan will depend on the individual's specific situation.
