Advances in medical research have led to the development of various strategies to minimize side effects. These include:
Targeted Therapy: This treatment targets specific molecules involved in the growth and survival of cancer cells, sparing healthy cells. Personalized Medicine: Tailoring treatments based on genetic profiles can help reduce unnecessary side effects. Supportive Care: Medications and therapies to manage side effects, such as anti-nausea drugs and pain relievers. Minimally Invasive Techniques: Procedures like laparoscopic surgery reduce recovery time and side effects.
