What is tumor targeted therapy

There are two types of tumors, benign and malignant. Normal human tumors also have malignant cells, but benign cells will suppress malignant cells. Once malignant cells can't be controlled by benign cells, cancer is formed. Currently, cancer is treated by combining traditional Chinese and Western medicine. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy are also very common treatment methods. There is also targeted therapy. So, what is tumor targeted therapy?

Molecular targeted therapy is a milestone development in the field of tumor treatment . It is also a representative combination of basic and clinical medicine. Studies have found that many tumors have some changes in signal transduction pathways and protein levels. To address these changes, we can use some targeted drugs to treat them. This is called molecular targeted therapy.

To give a simple example, chemotherapy is delivered throughout the body through blood vessels, so it may fight both the good guys and the bad guys. Molecular targeted therapy is targeted and specific. In layman's terms, it can identify tumor cells. This recognition makes the killing of tumor cells more specific.

Targeted tumor therapy is an effective method for treating tumors. Therefore, it is recommended that patients go to a regular hospital for examination at this time and treat the disease by combining their own specific symptoms. It is recommended to pay attention to more rest in daily life and prevent excessive fatigue of the body at this time, because patients with tumor diseases cannot overwork their bodies. They should also pay attention to preventing colds in daily life, supplement more nutrition, and eat more nutritious foods, but be careful not to eat spicy and irritating foods, and pay attention to the dietary structure.
