Cancer Treatment in India

Breast Cancer

Breast cancer treatment depends on the type of cancer, stage, hormone-receptor status, HER2 status, overall health and previous treatment. Treatment options may include breast-conserving surgery, mastectomy, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, hormone therapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy.

Cervical Cancer

Cervical cancer treatment is selected according to stage, tumour size, lymph-node involvement, overall health and fertility considerations. Options may include surgery, radiation therapy, brachytherapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy.

Prostate Cancer

Prostate cancer treatment depends on stage, risk group, PSA level, biopsy findings, age, overall health and whether the cancer has spread. Options may include active surveillance, surgery, radiation therapy, hormone therapy and advanced systemic treatments.

Colorectal Cancer

Colorectal cancer treatment depends on whether the tumour is in the colon or rectum, its stage, molecular features and whether nearby or distant organs are involved. Treatment may include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation and targeted or immune-based treatment.

Lung Cancer

Lung cancer treatment depends on whether the cancer is non-small cell or small cell, its stage, tumour location, overall health and molecular biomarkers. Treatment may include surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy.

Ovarian Cancer

Ovarian cancer treatment depends on tumour type, stage, extent of spread, overall health and molecular or genetic findings. Treatment commonly combines surgery and chemotherapy, with maintenance or targeted treatments for selected patients.

Oesophageal Cancer

Oesophageal cancer treatment depends on tumour location, stage, histological type, nutritional status and overall health. Treatment may include endoscopic therapy, surgery, chemotherapy, radiation or combinations of these.

Liver Cancer

Liver cancer treatment depends on tumour size and number, whether blood vessels are involved, liver function, underlying liver disease and whether the cancer has spread. Options may include surgery, ablation, embolisation, radiation, systemic therapy or transplantation.

Leukaemia

Leukaemia is a group of blood cancers rather than a single disease. Treatment depends on the exact subtype, genetic and molecular findings, age, overall health, disease risk and response to initial therapy.

Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

Non-Hodgkin lymphoma includes many different lymphoma subtypes. Treatment depends on whether the lymphoma is indolent or aggressive, its exact cell type, stage, symptoms, molecular features and previous treatment.

Multiple Myeloma

Multiple myeloma treatment depends on symptoms, disease risk, kidney and bone involvement, overall fitness, genetic findings, prior treatment and whether the patient is suitable for autologous stem-cell transplantation.

Brain Tumours

Brain tumours can be benign or malignant and include many different tumour types. Treatment depends on tumour location, size, pathology, molecular features, symptoms, age and whether complete removal is safely possible.

Laparoscopic Colorectal Surgery

Minimally invasive surgical approach for suitable patients.

Complex Cytoreductive Surgery

Advanced surgical techniques may be needed when disease involves multiple abdominal sites.

Minimally Invasive Oesophagectomy

Laparoscopic or thoracoscopic techniques can reduce incision size in suitable patients.

CAR-T Cell Therapy

CAR-T may be appropriate for selected relapsed or refractory blood cancers.

Image-Guided Radiation Therapy

Uses image guidance to improve radiation precision.

Neuronavigation-Guided Surgery

Computer-assisted navigation helps surgeons plan and localise tumour removal.

Robotic Prostatectomy

Robotic-assisted surgery is a minimally invasive approach for suitable surgical candidates.

Molecularly Targeted Treatment

Genetic and molecular findings can identify targeted treatment options.

Oncoplastic Breast-Conserving Surgery

Combines tumour removal with reconstructive techniques in suitable patients.

Laparoscopic / Robotic Liver Resection

Minimally invasive liver surgery may be appropriate for selected tumours.

Robotic / Minimally Invasive Thoracic Surgery

Less invasive lung resection may be possible in selected surgical candidates.

Microwave / Radiofrequency Ablation

Image-guided thermal ablation treats selected small tumours.

SBRT for Lung Cancer

Highly focused radiation can treat selected small localised lung tumours.

Genetic / Biomarker-Guided Maintenance Therapy

BRCA and other tumour findings can influence maintenance treatment selection.

Bispecific Antibody Therapy

Bispecific antibodies can redirect immune cells toward lymphoma cells in selected settings.

SBRT for Prostate Cancer

Highly focused radiation delivered over fewer sessions in selected patients.

Robotic Oesophagectomy

Robotic assistance may be used in selected centres and patients.

Awake Craniotomy

Used selectively when tumours are near areas controlling speech or movement.

Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy

Targets the first lymph nodes most likely to contain cancer.

Modern Brachytherapy

Image-based planning can improve dose delivery to the tumour while protecting nearby organs.

Robotic Colorectal Surgery

Robotic techniques may assist complex pelvic or rectal surgery.

Precision Radiation Therapy

Uses modern planning to target treatment while limiting exposure to nearby healthy tissue.

PSMA PET Imaging

PSMA-targeted imaging can improve staging in selected patients.

Sphincter-Preserving Rectal Surgery

Selected rectal cancers may be removed while preserving bowel continuity.

Comprehensive Molecular Profiling

Identifies actionable mutations and biomarkers that can guide treatment.

HIPEC in Selected Cases

Heated intraperitoneal chemotherapy may be considered in carefully selected settings.

Precision Chemoradiation

Modern planning can improve targeting while limiting dose to nearby organs.

Stereotactic Radiation

Highly focused radiation may be used for selected liver lesions.

Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplant

Donor stem-cell transplantation can be used in selected high-risk diseases.

Risk-Adapted Precision Therapy

Cytogenetic and molecular risk features can influence treatment selection.

Stereotactic Radiosurgery

Highly focused radiation can treat selected tumours without open surgery.

PSMA Radioligand Therapy

PSMA-targeted radioligand treatment may be used in selected advanced prostate cancer.

Biomarker-Guided Treatment

Uses tumour biomarkers to guide systemic treatment selection.

Molecular Tumour Profiling

Modern CNS tumour classification increasingly uses molecular features.
