Targeted therapy is a modern cancer treatment designed to attack specific genes, proteins, or pathways that contribute to cancer growth and survival. Unlike traditional chemotherapy, which affects both healthy and cancerous cells, targeted therapyfocuses only on cancer-driving mechanisms, making it more precise and often better tolerated. Dr. Kshitij Domadia specializes in precision oncology, offering targeted therapy tailored to each patient’s molecular and genetic tumor profile.
How Targeted Therapy Works
- Blocking signals that tell cancer cells to grow
- Interrupting the blood supply to tumors (anti-angiogenesis)
- Delivering toxic substances directly into cancer cells
- Stimulating the immune system to attack tumors (in some cases)
Cancer cells often have specific mutations or abnormalities that healthy cells don’t. Targeted therapy works by:
It is commonly used in cancers like lung, kidney, prostate, andhead & neck cancers — especially when certain biomarkers or mutations (like EGFR, ALK, MET, etc.) are detected.
Personalized to Your Cancer’s Biology
- Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS)
- Liquid biopsy
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC)
- Genomic profiling of tumor samples
At Dr. Kshitij’s clinic, every targeted therapy plan begins with advanced molecular testing such as:
These tests identify the mutations and abnormal pathways driving your cancer, allowing us to choose the most effective, approved targeted medications — often available as oral tablets or injections.
When Is Targeted Therapy Used?
- As first-line treatment for advanced or metastatic cancers
- After chemotherapy, if the cancer carries specific mutations
- In combination with chemotherapy or immunotherapy
- As maintenance or long-term therapy in some cancers
Benefits of Targeted Therapy
- Fewer side effects than traditional chemotherapy
- Better outcomes in mutation-positive cancers
- Often taken orally – easier outpatient treatment
- Can prolong life and delay progression in advanced stages
Possible Side Effects (Usually Mild & Manageable)
While usually better tolerated than chemotherapy, targeted therapy can still cause side effects such as:
- Fatigue
- Diarrhea
- Liver function changes
- High blood pressure
These are closely monitored and managed through supportive care and dose adjustments if needed.
