Cancer is a heterogeneous disease with multiple subtypes and varying degrees of aggressiveness. A single treatment modality often falls short in addressing the complexities of the disease. A multimodal approach is essential for the following reasons:
Comprehensive Treatment: Combining different therapies can target cancer cells at different stages and in various microenvironments. Reduced Resistance: Tumors often develop resistance to specific treatments. A multimodal strategy can minimize this risk by attacking the cancer from multiple angles. Improved Survival Rates: Studies have shown that integrating different treatments can significantly improve survival rates for various types of cancer. Enhanced Quality of Life: By reducing tumor size and controlling symptoms more effectively, patients often experience an improved quality of life.
