Targeted Therapies for Esophageal Cancer

Targeted therapies are a cutting-edge approach in the treatment of esophageal cancer, focusing on specific molecules involved in the growth and spread of cancer cells. Unlike traditional chemotherapy, which affects both healthy and cancerous cells, targeted therapies aim to minimize damage to normal cells, making treatment more precise and with fewer side effects.<br><br>https://chestsurgeryindia.com/blog/targeted-therapies-esophageal-cancer-treatment<br>

  3. One common type of targeted therapy for esophageal cancer is monoclonal antibodies. These drugs specifically target proteins on cancer cells, such as HER2, helping to stop the growth of tumors. Another approach is the use of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), which block signals that promote the growth of cancer cells. These therapies are often combined with other treatments like chemotherapy or radiation to enhance their effectiveness. their effectiveness.
