Personalized Cancer Treatment Plans
Cancer treatment can be complicated and should be specific to the cancer type, location and person. If you're diagnosed with cancer, a Saint Francis treatment specialist, or oncologist, will provide an overview of cancer care options available - and recommend the most effective treatment plan based on type of cancer, how far it has spread and other influential factors, like your age, general health and lifestyle.
Treatment options available at Saint Francis include:
- surgery;
- chemotherapy;
- radiation therapy; and/or
- immunotherapy.
If the diseased cells are confined to one location and have not spread (metastasized), surgery is the most common cancer treatment. This is often the case with lung, breast and colon cancers. If surgery cannot remove all of the cancer cells, additional treatment is delivered in the form of radiation, chemotherapy or both. Some cancers require a combination of surgery, radiation and chemotherapy. Lymphoma, or cancer of the lymph glands, is rarely treated with surgery and more commonly treated through chemotherapy and radiation
