CANCER CENTER - OVERVIEW

Medical Oncologists:

Medical management of cancers involves the use of chemotherapy and additional cancer-fighting drugs such as tamoxifen (for breast cancer) and others. These drugs destroy cancer cells by poisoning them. Medical management as a primary cancer treatment is most commonly employed to fight blood cancers such as lymphoma or multiple myeloma, in which the cancer cells are not grouped together in a solid tumor or tumors that can be removed surgically.
