Areas of Expertise and Treatments
Chemotherapy uses anticancer medicines to destroy or control cancer cells and may be used alone or in combination with other cancer treatments.
Targeted therapy uses medicines designed to act on specific molecular features of cancer cells and is selected according to tumour biology.
Immunotherapy helps the immune system recognise and attack cancer cells and may be used for selected cancer types.
Precision medicine uses tumour-specific molecular and genetic information to help guide personalised cancer treatment.
Hormonal therapy is used for selected hormone-sensitive cancers, including some breast and prostate cancers.
Electrochemotherapy combines anticancer medicines with controlled electrical pulses to improve drug uptake in selected tumour tissues.
Chronochemotherapy schedules anticancer treatment according to biological timing in selected situations with the aim of optimising effectiveness and tolerability.
Medical oncology treatment for head and neck cancers may include chemotherapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy according to disease stage and tumour characteristics.
Systemic treatment for breast cancer may include chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy depending on tumour subtype and stage.
Lung cancer treatment may include chemotherapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy based on cancer subtype, molecular findings and stage.
Medical treatment for gastrointestinal cancers may include chemotherapy and targeted systemic therapies as part of multidisciplinary cancer care.
Systemic therapy for gynaecological cancers may include chemotherapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy depending on cancer type and stage.
Genitourinary cancer treatment includes systemic management of cancers affecting the kidneys, bladder, prostate and related organs.
Lymphoma treatment may involve chemotherapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy depending on lymphoma subtype and disease stage.
Supportive oncology focuses on symptom relief, treatment side-effect management and quality-of-life support throughout cancer care.
