About the offer

Targeted sarcoma therapy focuses on specific molecules, for example, proteins, on the surface of cells. These molecules send signals to the growth and division of sarcoma. Targeted drugs stop particular chemical reactions that promote their spread, causing minimal damage to healthy cells. Such treatment can be combined with other methods of combating sarcomas or used independently. Different therapy types have various mechanisms of action. For example, they destroy, control, or change the behavior of sarcoma cells. Others strengthen the body's immune system, control symptoms, or reduce the side effects of treatment. Therefore, when choosing drugs, doses, and regimens, the medical team working with the patient will consider the individual characteristics of each case of sarcoma. To date, there are several forms of taking medications. They can be taken orally as regular tablets, capsules, or intravenously. Pills are usually taken on a precise schedule at home. Each patient receives instructions on how much, when, and how to do it. The specialist administers intravenous medications for up to a few hours. The drug doses are calculated so that the necessary amount of these substances that destroy sarcoma is constantly present in the body. The advantage of targeted drugs over chemotherapy is that those only affect tumor cells, minimizing the undesirable side effects.
