So can pancreatic cancer patients be treated by taking medicine? The following is a detailed introduction to the drug treatment methods of pancreatic cancer abroad!

(1) Chemotherapy

The purpose of chemotherapy is to prolong survival, improve quality of life, and enhance the effects of other treatments such as surgery, including adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery and palliative chemotherapy for patients who have not received radical treatment. In recent years, neoadjuvant chemotherapy has been widely used in some large pancreatic centers to improve the effect of surgical treatment or increase the surgical resection rate.

Precautions for adjuvant chemotherapy: Adjuvant chemotherapy for pancreatic cancer should be started about one month after radical surgery; preparations before adjuvant chemotherapy include enhanced CT scans of the abdomen and pelvis, chest anteroposterior and lateral radiographs, peripheral blood routine, liver and kidney function, electrocardiogram, and tumor markers CEA, CA19-9, etc. Adverse reactions related to chemotherapy should be observed and treated in a timely manner during chemotherapy.

With the research on pancreatic cancer-related genes and signal pathways, targeted therapy has become a new method for treating pancreatic cancer.

Don’t take medicine randomly when you are not sick. Take medicine under the guidance of a doctor and face life with a positive and optimistic attitude. Finally, I hope everyone has a healthy body!
