What Factors Contribute to a Cancer Being Less Aggressive?
Several factors can contribute to the aggressiveness of cancer: - Genetic Makeup: Some cancers have genetic mutations that make them grow slower. - Tumor Location: Cancers in certain locations may be easier to manage and less likely to spread. - Cell Type: The type of cells involved can also affect the growth rate and spread of the cancer. - Patient's Overall Health: A healthier immune system can sometimes keep slow-growing cancers at bay.
