Medicine:Multimodal cancer therapy

From HandWiki
Short description: Approach to cancer treatment

Multimodal cancer therapy, often referred to simply as multimodal therapy or multimodal cancer care, is an approach for treatment of cancer that combines radiation and chemotherapy[1] or other multiple therapeutic modalities.[1][2] For example, in the case of mesotheliomas, treatments combine modalities such as surgery, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and radiotherapy.[3] Multimodal treatments can often have synergistic effects leading to better clinical outcomes.[4]

Diverse types of cancer can be treated via a multimodal approach, including non-small cell lung cancer[5] and gastric cancer.[6]
