Cancer protocols can vary significantly depending on the type and stage of cancer. For example:
Breast Cancer: May include guidelines for hormone receptor testing, genetic testing for BRCA mutations, and specific chemotherapy regimens. Lung Cancer: Might involve protocols for molecular testing (e.g., EGFR, ALK mutations) and tailored targeted therapies. Colorectal Cancer: Could specify protocols for screening (e.g., colonoscopy), surgical techniques, and adjuvant chemotherapy.
