Fractionated Dose Chemotherapy for Ovarian Cancer
Cancer Treatment Centers of America (CTCA) has been offering fractionated dose chemotherapy as an ovarian cancer treatment for several years. Fractionated dose chemotherapy may help minimize common side effects normally associated with standard chemotherapy, such as nausea and vomiting.
Fractionated dose chemotherapy gently introduces chemotherapy drugs into the body in smaller, more manageable doses over a period of three to five days, instead of the single, large dose of standard chemotherapy.
This innovative delivery method allows chemotherapy drugs to work against cancerous cells for a longer period of time. It may also help reduce some of the unpleasant side effects of traditional chemotherapy, making your overall ovarian cancer treatment more tolerable.
