Targeted Therapy

Targeted therapy is a type of cancer treatment that uses drugs or other substances to precisely identify and attack certain types of cancer cells. A targeted therapy can be used by itself or in combination with other treatments, such as traditional or standard chemotherapy, surgery, or radiation therapy. If your treatment plan includes targeted therapy, knowing how it works and what to expect can often help you prepare for treatment and make informed decisions about your care.
