Targeted Therapies

Targeted therapies are a type of cancer treatment that focuses on specific differences found in cancer cells, such as certain proteins or genes. These treatments aim to stop or slow the growth of cancer cells while causing less harm to healthy cells. This approach can often lead to fewer or different side effects compared to traditional treatments, potentially improving your comfort and daily life during treatment. Here, you'll find information about how targeted therapies work, what to expect during treatment, and how to manage potential side effects.
