Chemotheraphy sa breast cancer

WHAT'S UP DOC? - Dr. Tranquilino Elicaño Jr. -
ANG operasyon para sa breast cancer ay nagsimula may 90 taon na ang nakalilipas. At sa haba ng panahong iyan, ang overall survival rates pagkatapos ng operasyon ay hindi pa rin nagbabago. Hindi malinaw ang kadahilanan pero naniniwala ang mga oncologists na ang breast cancer ay systemic disease. It is an illness involves the entire bodies ability to cope with a disorder. Ang paniniwalang ito ay naging daan para magkaroon nang napakaraming pag-aaral at pagsasaliksik na umabot ng 40 taon para ma-determine kung ang pagsasailalim sa chemotheraphy pagkaraan ng operasyon ay mababawasan ang pag-ulit ng tumor. Ito ay mahalaga sapagkat karamihan sa mga kababaihan na sumailalim sa operasyon ay namatay sa sakit. Even more unfortunately, this group of women comprises nearly 50 percent of patients with breast cancer.

Ang tinatawag na adjuvant therapy or adjuvant chemotheraphy ay ginagawa para magamot ang potential disease. There is no disease to measure and no disease to follow-up. The treatment is given to alter the odds that the tumor will recur. The way adjuvant therapy was approached initially was to enter thousands of women into a study and randomly assign one group of patients to receive chemotheraphy and the other group do not receive the chemotheraphy.

Sa pagsasagawa ng ganitong pag-aaral, iba’t ibang characteristics ng pasyente at kanyang sakit ang dapat malaman ganoon din ang iba pang statistics. These careful statistics needed to be applied to each group of women depending on the type of breast cancer.
