How Are Cancer and Autoimmune Disorders Managed Together?
The management of cancer in patients with autoimmune disorders requires a multidisciplinary approach. Treatment plans should be tailored to balance the need for effective cancer therapy with the risk of exacerbating the autoimmune condition. For example, alternatives to immunosuppressive drugs may be explored, or the dosages may be carefully adjusted. Close monitoring and collaboration between oncologists, rheumatologists, and other specialists are essential to optimize patient outcomes.
