Targeted Therapy is an advanced form of cancer treatment that uses specialized drugs designed to identify and attack specific molecular markers or genetic mutations present in cancer cells. Unlike traditional chemotherapy, targeted therapy focuses on precise biological pathways responsible for cancer growth, minimizing damage to healthy cells.
This treatment works by blocking proteins or signals that promote tumor growth, cutting off blood supply to tumors, or triggering cancer cell death. Targeted therapy is commonly used in cancers such as Breast cancer (HER2-positive), Lung cancer (EGFR, ALK mutations), Colorectal cancer, Kidney cancer, Melanoma, Certain blood cancers.
It may be used alone or in combination with chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or radiation therapy depending on tumor biology and stage.
The goal of targeted therapy is to improve treatment precision, enhance effectiveness, and reduce systemic side effects compared to conventional chemotherapy.
Several Cycles Over 3–12 Months (Varies by Protocol)
Not Required
Day Care or Outpatient Basis
Generally Faster Recovery Compared to Conventional Chemotherapy
$2,000 – $6,000 per Cycle*
*Cost varies depending on drug type, molecular testing requirements, treatment duration, and patient condition.
Targeted therapy is delivered under oncology specialist supervision following molecular diagnostic confirmation.
Step-by-step process
1. Molecular Testing
Tumor biopsy samples are analyzed for genetic mutations or protein markers to determine eligibility.
2. Treatment Planning
Oncologists select the appropriate targeted agent based on molecular profile and cancer stage.
3. Drug Administration
Targeted therapy may be administered:
4. Monitoring and Response Assessment
Regular imaging and blood tests monitor tumor response and treatment tolerance.
5. Side Effect Management
Supportive care is provided to manage mild side effects such as fatigue, skin reactions, or blood pressure changes.
This personalized approach allows higher treatment accuracy with improved safety.
Treatment selection is based on tumor genetics and international oncology guidelines.
Final suitability depends on molecular testing results and oncologist evaluation.
