  1. Beyond Chemotherapy: Exploring Alternative Approaches to Cancer Treatment For years, cancer has carried the stigma of being an incurable disease, and its diagnosis is a complex procedure that requires expensive intervention. For the past decade, one renowned method of cancer treatment that has prevailed is chemotherapy. However, its heavy side effects have rendered various people perplexed. Chemotherapy is known for triggering side effects like fatigue, hair loss, anaemia and chronic appetite changes. In this blog, we will explore the recent emergencies in cancer treatment and the leading Cancer treatment hospital in India. Emerging Cancer Treatment Methods Immunotherapy Immunotherapy treatments have been used to activate or suppress an individual's immune system to modify the person's immune response and help fight cancer. Immunotherapy has been incorporated to treat various cancers such as bladder cancer, cervical cancer, breast cancer, liver cancer and many more. Targeted Therapy Targeted therapies use certain substances and drugs to attack the direct cancer cells and reduce the spread of the tumour. Dispensed as some of the leading Cancer treatment hospitals in the nation, targeted therapies are designed to interfere with specific pathways to reduce overall cancer growth. Targeted therapies are often used to treat various leukaemias and colorectal, lung and head cancers.

  2. Precision Medicine Precision medicines have been developed to create specialized cancer treatment plans based on the tumour composition to enable more precise and personalized treatment. While precision medicines are a fairly new finding, they have been positively used to treat conditions like colorectal, breast, lung, and certain leukaemias and lymphomas. Hyperthermia Also referred to as heat treatment, hyperthermia is used to raise the temperature of the affected body region to directly eliminate cancerous cells and tumors. Hyperthermia can also be used to augment the impact of previous radiation therapy and cure cancers like breast cancer, bladder cancer, lung cancer, liver cancer and certain sarcomas. Dietary Modifications Basic nutritional changes can help patients severely in certain specialised cases. Widely regarded as the leading cancer hospital in Delhi,at Park Hospital, we advise patients to adopt an anti-inflammatory diet and increase the intake of certain nutrients to support overall well- being. Gene Therapy Another newly explored cancer treatment method is gene therapy, devised to help treat and prevent cancers. Gene therapy aims to alter the genes within cancer cells or replace the faulty ones with new genes to restrict cancer growth. Proton Therapy Proton therapy is a form of radiation therapy centred around using protons instead of traditional X-rays to target tumours precisely and efficiently and reduce damage to surrounding tissues. Proton therapy can be used to cure cancers like brain tumours, spinal cord tumours, head and neck cancer, etc. Cancer Care at Park Hospital At Park Hospital, the emphasis is on providing a comprehensive brand of treatment that persists with patients for its sense of quality.
