Sessions&Tracks

Lung Cancer

Lung cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide. It occurs when abnormal cells in the lungs grow uncontrollably, forming tumors that can spread to other parts of the body. The two main types are non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Smoking is the primary risk factor, but exposure to pollutants, radon gas, and genetic factors also play a role. Symptoms include persistent cough, chest pain, shortness of breath, and unexplained weight loss. Early detection through screening improves survival rates, and treatment options include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and immunotherapy.

Cancer Cell Biology & Genetics

Cancer cell biology focuses on the structure and function of cancer cells. Cancer is characterized by abnormal cell growth, with the potential to invade or spread to other parts of the body, distinguishing it from benign tumors. Normal cell division aids growth and repair, but cancer cells persistently divide, ignoring the body's signals to stop. This unregulated growth often leads to metastasis, where cancer spreads to other parts of the body. Genetic mutations causing DNA damage and genomic instability are primary drivers of cancer formation.

Cancer & Stem Cell Therapy
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) exhibit traits similar to normal stem cells, including self-renewal and differentiation. CSCs are tumorigenic and may resist conventional chemotherapeutic agents. Their unique properties, such as enhanced DNA repair and resistance mechanisms, make them difficult to eliminate. Developing targeted therapies for CSCs offers hope for improving survival rates and quality of life for patients with metastatic cancer.

Cancer Biomarkers
Biomarkers are molecules that indicate the presence of cancer, either through tumor-derived substances or bodily responses to tumors. Biomarkers assist in cancer diagnosis, prognosis, and monitoring. Examples include AFP (liver cancer), BCR-ABL (chronic myeloid leukemia), and BRCA1/BRCA2 (breast/ovarian cancer). Non-invasive biomarker testing using blood or bodily fluids holds promise for early detection.

Breast Cancer

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide, affecting both women and, less frequently, men. It occurs when abnormal cells in the breast grow uncontrollably, forming a tumor that may spread to other parts of the body. The main types include ductal carcinoma and lobular carcinoma. Risk factors include genetics, hormonal changes, obesity, and lifestyle choices. Symptoms may include a lump in the breast, changes in breast shape, nipple discharge, or skin dimpling. Early detection through mammograms and self-examinations improves survival rates. Treatment options include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, hormone therapy, and targeted therapies.

Hematologic Malignancies

Hematologic malignancies are cancers that affect the blood, bone marrow, and lymphatic system. They include leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma. Leukemia involves abnormal white blood cells, while lymphoma affects the lymph nodes and immune system. Myeloma is cancer of the plasma cells in the bone marrow. Risk factors include genetic predisposition, environmental exposures, and certain viral infections. Symptoms may include fatigue, frequent infections, unexplained weight loss, and swollen lymph nodes. Treatment often involves chemotherapy, radiation therapy, stem cell transplantation, targeted therapies, and immunotherapy, with advances in precision medicine improving outcomes for many patients. Early diagnosis is crucial for effective treatment.

 Radiation Oncology

Radiation oncology is a medical specialty focused on using radiation therapy to treat cancer and certain non-cancerous conditions. It involves the precise delivery of high-energy radiation to destroy cancer cells while minimizing damage to healthy tissues. Common types of radiation therapy include external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) and brachytherapy. Radiation oncology plays a crucial role in cancer treatment, either as a primary therapy or in combination with surgery, chemotherapy, or immunotherapy. Advanced techniques like IMRT, proton therapy, and stereotactic radiosurgery improve treatment accuracy and patient outcomes. Side effects vary but may include fatigue, skin irritation, and localized pain.

Gynecologic Oncology

Gynecologic oncology is a specialized field of medicine focused on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of cancers affecting the female reproductive system. These include ovarian, cervical, uterine, vaginal, and vulvar cancers. Risk factors vary but may include HPV infection, genetic mutations (e.g., BRCA genes), hormonal influences, and lifestyle factors. Early symptoms can be subtle, such as abnormal bleeding, pelvic pain, bloating, or unexplained weight loss. Treatment options include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy. Regular screenings, such as Pap smears and HPV testing, play a key role in early detection and improving survival rates.

Gastrointestinal Cancers

Gastrointestinal (GI) cancers affect the digestive tract, including the esophagus, stomach, liver, pancreas, colorectal, and rectum. Risk factors include diet, family history, smoking, and certain genetic conditions. Symptoms vary but may include abdominal pain, changes in bowel habits, weight loss, and difficulty swallowing. Early detection and screening (e.g., colonoscopy) are critical. Treatment options include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy, depending on the cancer type and stage.

Genitourinary Cancers

Genitourinary cancers affect the kidneys, bladder, prostate, testicles, and ureters. These cancers are more common in men, particularly prostate cancer. Smoking, family history, age, and exposure to certain chemicals are known risk factors. Symptoms may include blood in urine, pelvic pain, urinary changes, or unexplained weight loss. Treatment often involves surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy. Early detection, such as regular prostate screenings or kidney function tests, improves treatment outcomes.

Pediatric Hematology/Oncology

Pediatric hematology/oncology focuses on diagnosing and treating blood disorders and cancers in children. Common conditions include leukemia, lymphoma, and solid tumors. Childhood cancers often present with pale skin, unusual bruising, fatigue, or unexplained lumps. Treatment varies but typically includes chemotherapy, radiation, stem cell transplantation, and targeted therapies. Early detection and ongoing research have significantly improved survival rates for many childhood cancers. Supportive care, including pain management and psychological support, is integral to treatment.

Cancer Screening & Chemotherapy

Screening aims to detect cancer early, improving treatment outcomes. Reliable methods such as blood tests, imaging, and DNA analysis are essential. Chemotherapy, a cornerstone of cancer treatment, involves anti-cancer drugs to eliminate or slow tumor growth. It can be curative or palliative, often used in combination with other therapies to enhance effectiveness.

Cancer Causes and Risk Factors
Cancer arises from genetic mutations leading to uncontrolled cell growth. Environmental and lifestyle factors, such as smoking, poor diet, obesity, infections, and radiation exposure, play significant roles.
