What to do if lung cancer metastasizes to the liver? Learn about these five treatments

If lung cancer patients have liver metastasis, radiotherapy and chemotherapy can be used first, which are also the most common methods for treating the disease, but some side effects may occur after treatment. In addition, biological immunotherapy and traditional Chinese medicine treatment can also be used. These two treatment methods have relatively few side effects and can greatly improve the patient's immune repair ability. Targeted therapy can also be used when necessary.

Lung cancer itself is a serious disease, and it requires timely treatment after contracting it, mainly using drugs, surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, etc., which can effectively control the disease and prevent lung cancer from metastasizing to the liver. However, some patients may develop liver metastasis of lung cancer because they do not receive timely treatment, which indicates that the disease has reached a more serious stage. So what should we do if lung cancer metastasizes to the liver?
1. Radiotherapy for liver metastasis of lung cancer <br/>If lung cancer metastasizes to the liver, radiotherapy should be performed first. Most patients can effectively relieve pain symptoms after radiotherapy. Radiotherapy has developed rapidly, which can not only improve the accuracy of treatment, but also reduce side effects and greatly improve the quality of life of patients.
2. Chemotherapy for liver metastasis of lung cancer <br/>The most important thing for patients with liver metastasis of lung cancer is chemotherapy, which can effectively relieve the symptoms of pain and control the development of liver metastasis. Chemotherapy is mainly a combination chemotherapy regimen based on high-dose cisplatin, which has the most significant effect.
3. Biological immunotherapy for liver metastasis of lung cancer <br/>Lung cancer patients with liver metastasis can receive biological immunotherapy. The more commonly used treatments include anti-angiogenesis therapy, hepatocyte therapy, gene therapy, oncolytic virus therapy, and endocrine therapy, etc. Biological immunotherapy is a relatively safe and effective treatment method with relatively low adverse reactions, so it is increasingly widely used in clinical practice.
IV. TCM treatment of liver metastasis of lung cancer <br/> TCM has a very good effect on the treatment of liver metastasis of lung cancer. While treating the primary lesion, it can also effectively control the symptoms of liver metastasis. Moreover, TCM has a relatively low toxicity reaction and can quickly activate multifunctional liver cells. At the same time, it can also effectively prevent lung cancer from recurring and metastasizing, which will greatly improve the immune repair ability of lung cancer patients.
5. Targeted treatment of liver metastasis of lung cancer <br/>Targeted treatment is mainly radionuclide internal irradiation therapy. If the patient's condition is serious and not suitable for radiotherapy, radionuclide therapy can be used. This treatment method can effectively reduce the various adverse symptoms caused by liver metastasis, eliminate and relieve the patient's severe pain, and inhibit the development of liver metastases.
