What is Breast Cancer?

Breast cancer arises when the cells in the breasts grow abnormally. It is commonly seen in women over the age of 50 and rarely seen in men. Breast cancer can begin in any part of the breast and the type of breast cancer is defined by the cell or tissue affected. The types of breast cancers are invasive ductal carcinoma, ductal carcinoma in situ, invasive lobular carcinoma, lobular carcinoma in situ, inflammatory breast cancer, paget’s disease of the breast, and triple-negative breast cancer. Based on the breast cancer type and stage, and the patient’s overall health condition, the best treatment plan will be chosen. Breast cancer may show symptoms like a lump, or unusual thickening in the breast or in the underarm area, a change in the colour and shape of breasts, unusual discharge from nipples, swelling of a part or whole of the breasts, a change in the size or shape of the Breasts, itchy or sore nipples or nipples turning inward, or dimples on the skin of the breasts.

Best Treatment for Breast Cancer

Generally, a multidisciplinary panel of oncologists is involved in treating breast cancer effectively. It is a team of cancer experts from various specialisations such as surgery, medical oncology, radiation oncology, pathology, and other specialists involved depending on the case. All experts together develop a personalised treatment plan considering the type and stage of breast cancer and the patient’s general health condition.

Surgery for Breast Cancer

It is the best choice for early-stage and locally-advanced breast cancers. Here, the cancer-affected part of the breast will be removed along with some surrounding healthy tissue.

Chemotherapy for Breast Cancer

It is mostly given for breast cancer that has spread to distant parts of the body. It is given alone or in combination with other treatments. It is available in the form of pills to take orally and as an infusion to receive intravenously.

Targeted therapy for Breast Cancer

Targeted therapy drugs work on gene mutations and suppress the proteins that promote the growth of tumours.

Immunotherapy for Breast Cancer

It stimulates and strengthens the body’s immune system to fight against cancer. It may also be an option for patients with inoperable and metastatic breast cancer.

Hormone therapy for Breast Cancer

Certain hormones, especially estrogen, have the ability to promote cancer growth. So, there are drugs available to block the hormones from reaching cancer cells. Hormone therapy works only for hormone receptor-positive breast cancers.

Radiotherapy for Breast Cancer

It uses high-energy rays to destroy cancer cells or tumours and is a good choice for breast cancers that have spread to distant organs.

FAQ

You can get relief from cancer symptoms and your breast cancer starts reducing. Depending on the type of treatment received, you may face some manageable side effects such as tiredness, nausea, vomiting, lack of appetite, weakness, mouth sores, etc. These side effects subside gradually once the treatment finishes. It is important to keep your healthcare team informed of symptoms before, during, and after breast cancer treatment. Also, take the help of a registered nutritionist to maintain good health during these times and don’t forget to stay physically active.

Many advancements took place in recent years to treat breast cancer at its best. Some of them are oral targeted therapies, hormone therapies to effectively block estrogen, and breast conservation surgery where the healthy breast tissue is left behind after surgery without removing the whole breast.

Usually, breast cancer can be treated in multidisciplinary settings. It involves medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, surgical oncologists, and other physicians too. Depending on the type and stage of breast cancer, the type of treatment selected, and other comorbidities of a patient, several specialised doctors will be involved. You can find the best and most experienced radiation oncologists at Onco Cancer Centres and you can schedule a visit online.

Every cancer treatment can cause certain side effects. The type of side effects you may experience depends on the type of treatment you received. However, some common side effects of breast cancer treatment include nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, weakness, extreme tiredness, etc. Your treating doctor will prescribe you medications to manage side effects. If you face any unusual side effects or if side effects persist or worsen even after taking medication, consult your doctor immediately and get the necessary medical help.

The choice of treatment and its duration depends on the stage of cancer too. Early-stage breast cancer (Stage I & Stage II) can be treated with a lesser duration of treatment, so it will be less expensive whereas late-stage breast cancer (Stage III & Stage IV) requires treatment for a longer duration, often with combination therapies, so the cost will be high accordingly. Therefore, the cost varies from person to person depending on the type and stage of breast cancer, the type and duration of treatment, and the patient’s unique needs. Ask your doctor about the approximate final cost of your breast cancer treatment.

Generally, every cancer treatment involves a multidisciplinary team. It is a panel of cancer experts from various specialisations.
