Read carefully before using anticancer drugs

A common diseases as cancer, serious harm human health, increasing the concern of the community. This stage of the cancer research while at the molecular and cell biology has made great progress, but still failed to answer many basic questions, the etiology and pathogenesis is not entirely clear.

It has been demonstrated that a tumor from the normal control of the unlimited potential for growth, local spread to surrounding normal tissue and the body transferred to the ability of distant organs, each tumor has its own unique history and the proliferation of types. So bring extremely difficult to treat, not only is the experience of specialists is also a great challenge.

First of all has been confirmed in the circumstances, should develop a comprehensive, practical and feasible treatment plans, most important of these is the planned objective, namely, treatment targets to be achieved by what is. Radical is still tolerated, if radical, if possible, treatment should be positive, usually take surgical resection is often strive for a tumor cells do not stay. Palliative care is generally the maximum extent possible to lift the suffering of patients, the organ to maintain close to normal function, increase the survival of the patient's life time, that is to provide the benefits to patients over the risks arising from the treatment. At present the main cancer treatment are surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. In actual clinical work, these three methods is not an independent, in most cases at or before or after the primary and secondary, we are here to discuss the key is commonly used oral anticancer drugs. Anticancer drug to the tumor diseases have systemic effects, many of the current clinical application, has accumulated a wealth of experience, it is reasonable to specialists for the use of these drugs, and is joint use.

The purpose of chemotherapy to tumor cells in a selective toxic effect, to maximize the killing, and the host cells without harm, or at least damage to host cells. But the reality is not the human imagination, because the tumor cells with normal cells the difference is very small, usually anticancer drugs not only inhibit cell proliferation, but also to split the toxic effects of normal cells, it is common anti-cancer chemotherapy The results, sometimes because of drugs on the body's normal lead to toxic effects of chemotherapy were forced to be suspended. So we need to anticancer drugs have a correct understanding and grasp the principle of good administration, that is, the dose of drugs to both died of cancer cells and allow normal cell proliferation rehabilitation.
