Targeted Drug Therapy for Liver Cancer
In addition to chemotherapy, the liver cancer team at Cancer Treatment Centers of America (CTCA) uses a variety of targeted drugs for liver cancer treatment. This type of targeted therapy blocks the growth and spread of cancer by preventing cancer cells from dividing or destroying them directly.
Unlike chemotherapy, which affects all cells in the body, targeted drugs block or kill cancer cells and spare more healthy cells, reducing side effects and improving your quality of life.
Targeted cancer therapies may be used alone, in combination with other targeted therapy treatments, or with other liver cancer treatments, such as chemotherapy, radiation therapy and surgery.
