What are the treatments for lung cancer? These methods are the most effective for treating lung cancer

Lung cancer cells are particularly easy to spread and metastasize. Cancer cells can spread directly to the pleural cavity and enter the brain, liver and other organs through the veins, seriously endangering people's health. Therefore, the treatment of lung cancer is very important. What are the treatments for lung cancer?

Surgical resection is the first choice for lung cancer treatment. Except for a few patients, most patients need postoperative adjuvant therapy after lung cancer resection. The reason is that there may be residual cancer cells after surgery, or some lung cancer tumors are difficult to completely remove by surgery, or there are metastatic lesions through the lymphatic or blood system. Practice has shown that compared with simple surgery, postoperative adjuvant therapy for lung cancer has a longer survival period and less postoperative recurrence. Therefore, postoperative consolidation therapy is very important and should not be ignored by patients.

Radiotherapy and chemotherapy are commonly used adjuvant treatments after lung cancer surgery, and the effects are remarkable. However, radiotherapy and chemotherapy drugs often fail to distinguish right from wrong and foes from enemies, and while killing lung cancer cells, they also kill normal cells in the human body. Some studies have found that the number and function of the innate immune response and adaptive immune cells of lung cancer patients are reduced to varying degrees. In addition, the immune suppression of the body by surgery and the effects of postoperative nutrition further damage the immune function of patients. How to enhance the immune function of anti-tumor cells is an important measure to prolong the survival of lung cancer patients after surgery.

With the breakthrough in medical technology, cell immunotherapy is becoming one of the important auxiliary treatment methods for lung cancer, playing an increasingly important role in controlling tiny residual cancer lesions, delaying recurrence, and improving survival and quality of life. It has broken through the bottleneck of traditional treatment and has become the fourth tumor treatment technology after surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy.

Cellular immunotherapy is the latest treatment technology developed in the 21st century and is a good supplement to conventional treatments. This technology organically combines various treatment methods, comprehensively brings into play the advantages of various treatment methods, and maximizes the treatment effect. Cellular immunotherapy refers to the use of certain biotechnology to cultivate DC immune cells and CIK tumor-killing cells in a high-standard laboratory, and then adopts a unique double-cultivation and double-infusion method to double-cultivate and double-infuse DC and CIK cells, combine them into one, and then infuse them back into the patient's body to directly kill cancer cells and rebuild the autologous immune system.

At present, the main methods for treating lung cancer include surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and cellular immunotherapy. Surgery is the main method for treating lung cancer. Surgery mainly involves surgical removal of the diseased lung. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy are auxiliary methods for treating lung cancer, and are mostly used to treat patients with advanced lung cancer.
