®01Systemic treatment
Chemotherapy
Medicines that act against rapidly dividing cancer cells. The drug, dose and schedule depend on the cancer type, treatment goal and individual health factors.
Cancer treatments
The right treatment is a carefully reasoned choice.
Many people receive a combination of cancer treatments. The sequence and purpose of each therapy should be explained clearly before a plan begins.
Treatment expertise
Modern oncology, centered on the individual.
Recommendations are made only after reviewing the diagnosis, stage, test results, prior treatment, overall health and goals of care.
02Immune-based treatment
Immunotherapy
Treatment that helps the immune system recognize or fight cancer. Benefit depends on the cancer type and, in many cases, specific clinical or biomarker features.
03Biology-led treatment
Targeted therapy
Medicines designed to act on particular proteins or molecular changes involved in cancer growth. Testing may be needed to determine whether a target is present.
04Precision oncology
Genomic & molecular profiling
Selective biomarker testing can help refine diagnosis, estimate likely benefit from some treatments and identify clinically relevant molecular targets.
05Specialist coordination
Bone marrow transplant care
Assessment and coordinated care around autologous or allogeneic stem-cell transplantation for selected hematological conditions and other indications.
06Quality of life
Supportive & palliative care
Active management of symptoms, treatment side effects, emotional concerns and practical needs—alongside cancer-directed care when appropriate.
07Risk & early detection
Preventive oncology
Personalized conversations about modifiable risks, screening, family history and when genetic counseling or testing may be appropriate.
08Life during & after treatment
Survivorship care
Follow-up plans that address recurrence surveillance, late effects, general health, emotional recovery and the transition beyond active treatment.
