🏥 Understanding Treatment Options for Bone Cancer 🦴 Treatment for bone cancer often includes surgery, chemotherapy, and/or radiotherapy. Here are key treatment approaches: - **Staging:** Determines cancer grade and spread. - **Limb-sparing Surgery:** Removes cancer while preserving limb function. - **Amputation:** Rare, but necessary in some cases. - **Other Surgeries:** Remove cancerous bone, replace with grafts. - **Chemotherapy:** Destroys cancer cells, sometimes used with surgery. - **Radiation Therapy:** Uses high-energy rays to target cancer cells. - **Palliative Care:** Manages symptoms and improves quality of life. Each treatment plan is tailored to the individual's needs. Stay informed and consult with healthcare professionals for personalized care. #BoneCancerAwareness #CancerTreatment #HealthCare #StayInformed #GalaxySuperSpeciality

Clinical trials aren't just for developing new drugs 🔍 At San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium 2023, we heard about the ongoing phase 3 KEYNOTE-522 study. Recent data shows pembrolizumab (Keytruda) is most effective in combination with chemotherapy before surgery. Exciting developments in treatment timing! #CancerResearch #TNBC #TNBCFoundation #ClinicalTrials #BreastCancer #BreastCancerResearch #KEYNOTE522 #Keytruda

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) accounts for about 10–15% of all breast cancers. According to the National Cancer Institute’s (NCI’s) Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Program, TNBC affects 13 in every 100,000 females in the United States. Notably, this disease disproportionately impacts women of color. To address this disparity, it is crucial to develop and expand research studies focusing specifically on women of color. Increased research will help us understand the unique challenges faced by these populations and lead to more effective, targeted treatments. Immunotherapy is just step 1.
