2^nd World Cancer, Oncology and Therapeutics Congress

Cancer Biology studies the compound interplay of genes, proteins and biological procedures that drive the event , growth and spread of cancers. Considerate the various unlike biological systems underlying cancer’s development is vital for understanding cancer and identifying new targets for treatment. Cancer defines a huge spectrum of diseases that each one initiate from uncontrolled cellular growth. Broadly divided into benign tumors (unable to metastasize) or malignant tumors (able to invade normal tissues), cancers are further defined and classified by their cell type, tissue, or organ of origin.

Cancer therapy states the treatment of cancer during a patient, often with surgery, chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy. Targeted treatments also are available for a few cancer types. A cancer patient might receive numerous sorts of therapy, including those aimed toward relieving the symptoms of cancer, like pain. Any cancer therapy is often used as a primary treatment, but the foremost common primary cancer treatment for the foremost common sorts of cancer is surgery.

Radiation Oncology contains all features of study that effects on the treatment of cancer using radiation. Radiation can be given as a remedial modality, either alone or in combination with surgery and/or chemotherapy. It may also be used palliative, to relieve symptoms in patients with incurable cancers. The Radiotherapy/radiation therapy is broadly segmented into Tele radiotherapy, Brachy-radiotherapy and Metabolic Radiotherapy.

Surgical Oncology is the branch of medical procedure connected to oncology; it centers on the administration of tumors, particularly carcinogenic tumors. Surgical oncology is a specific region of oncology that appeals in specialists in the treatment and administration of tumor. Medical practice is used to analyze stage and treat growth, and certain malignancy related side effects.

Chemotherapy is a destructive form of chemical drug therapy meant to destroy swiftly growing cells in the body. It's usually used to treat cancer, as cancer cells grow and divide faster than other cells. Chemotherapy is a drug treatment that uses influential chemicals to kill fast-growing cells in your body. Chemotherapy is most often used to treat cancer, since cancer cells grow and multiply much more quickly than most cells in the body.

Cancer screening targets to detect cancer before symptoms appear. This may include blood tests, urine tests; DNA tests other tests, or medical imaging. The advantages of screening in terms of cancer prevention, early detection and subsequent treatment must be weighed against any harm. There is no particular test that can accurately diagnose cancer. The whole evaluation of a patient frequently requires a thorough history and physical examination along with diagnostic testing. Many tests are needed to determine.

Cancer diagnosis methods:

Lab tests

Diagnostic imaging

Endoscopic exams

Genetic tests

Tumor biopsies

A cancer biomarker refers to a material or process that is indicative of the presence of cancer in the body. A biomarker can be a molecule secreted by a tumor or a specific response of the body to the presence of cancer. A molecular marker might be used to see how well the body responds to a treatment for a disease or disorder. The importance of biomarkers continues to grow in all areas of clinical practice and, whether to predict, diagnose, or monitor disease, biomarkers are useful in every step of patient care.

Cancer Prevention deals the utmost cost-effective long-term approach for the control of cancer, to decrease exposure to cancer risk aspects and to ensure that people are delivered with the information and support they need to accept healthy lifestyles. Between 30-50% of all cancers are preventable. Global cancer prevention is considered as a critical objective due to its applicability to large populations, reducing long term effects of cancer by upholding proactive health practices and behaviors, and its perceived cost-effectiveness and viability for all socioeconomic classes.

Cancer therapy is personalized, which is why treatments can vary. The choice of treatment is influenced by the location of the tumor, distribution; cell type and the patient’s overall condition as well as possible other illnesses. Some type of cancers progress slowly that the situation can be observed for a while before the type of treatment is selected and started. Surgery is often sufficient for the treatment of small malignant tumors. Sometimes it’s likely to use only chemotherapy or drug therapy as an alternative.

The epidemiology of cancer is the study of the elements affecting cancer, as a way to infer probable trends and causes. The study of cancer epidemiology procedures epidemiological approaches to find the cause of cancer and to diagnose and develop improved treatments. Cancer epidemiology is the study of the distribution and determinants of the probability of cancer development. Cancer epidemiology can be used to detect factors that increase or decrease cancer occurrence in specific populations.

Organ Specific Cancer is usually named based on the place of the Cancer cell in the body organ. More than 100 types of Cancer are there and it may occur anywhere in the human body. Breast Cancer is the most common in Women, and Prostate cancer is common in Men. Colorectal cancer and Lung cancer occurs commonly in both men and women. Cancer also defined by the type of the cell formed them, like epithelial or squamous cell. There are different types of Cancers based on location of cancer in the body organ. These types are comes under the category of Organ Specific Cancer.

Breast Cancer

Lung Cancer

Prostate Cancer

Ovary Cancer

Non Hodgkin Lymphoma

And Others

Cancer pharmacology include studies of the simple mechanisms of signal transduction related with cell proliferation and apoptosis, the mechanisms of action of anti-neoplastic agents, the design and discovery of new drugs, basic mechanisms of DNA repair and DNA damage tolerance and the growth of novel approaches for gene therapy.

Cancer nanotechnology is a branch of nanotechnology concerned with the application of both nanomaterials and nanotechnology approaches to the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. Nanotechnology can provide quick and sensitive discovery of cancer-related molecules, allowing scientists to discover molecular changes even when they occur only in a small percentage of cells. Nanotechnology also has the potential to produce entirely novel and highly effective therapeutic agents.

Oncology Nursing is a field which including practice encompasses the roles of direct caregiver, instructor, consultant, administrator, and researcher. Oncology and cancer nursing encompasses to all care delivery settings where clients experiencing or at risk for developing cancer receive health care, education, and therapy for cancer prevention, screening and detection. It also involves proper screenings and other preventative practices, symptom management, care to retain as much normal functioning as possible, and supportive processes upon end of life.
