What is the effect of targeted therapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma

With the continuous development of society, new methods for treating tumors are emerging. Among them, targeted therapy is a better method for treating tumors in recent years, especially targeted therapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma. So, what is the effect of targeted therapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma?

Targeted therapy targets certain marker molecules overexpressed by tumor cells, selects specific blockers, and effectively interferes with the signal transduction pathways that are regulated by the marker molecules and are closely related to tumor occurrence, thereby inhibiting tumor growth, development and metastasis. Targeted therapy has achieved good results for some cancers such as breast cancer, but it is not suitable for all cancers. Targeted therapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma is not commonly used, and radiotherapy is still the most commonly used, but there are also some targeted treatment plans for nasopharyngeal carcinoma in clinical practice.

What should patients pay attention to in their diet?

You should eat about 500 grams of vegetables every day, and eat as much fruit as possible, such as 1-2 apples, citrus fruits or 10 strawberries. In short, the amount of fruit should be kept at around 150-250 grams.

We would like to remind all patients that nasopharyngeal cancer is a disease that cannot be ignored. Once discovered, you should go to a regular hospital for examination in time and receive drug treatment to avoid delaying the disease and causing greater harm to your body.
