Targeted therapy works by using medication to target the cancer’s specific genes, proteins, or the tissue environment that contributes to cancer growth and survival. Thoracic oncologist Dr. Jyoti Patel explains how this personalized or precision medicine works, and how it differs from other cancer treatments.

I have a question, if you take a biopsy you can tell a lot about the cancer cell, specifically where the cell originated, for example; you could give a biopsy to genome sequencing lab and they could tell you it is ovarian cancer form this cell type. So would it be possible to make a powerful target chemo that is active on specific ovarian cells regardless of the cancer being present or not. My thinking is, for some women who have had cancer on none vital organs such as the reproductive organs and had to have those organs removed, is it not better to them have a powerful targeted chemotherapy drug that just wipes out any existing cells of that type that in theory should only be present in reoccurrence of the cancer once the actual organ has been removed. Example, woman had full hysterectomy for ovarian cancer, now has no ovaries, and is safe to take a targeted chemotherapy drug that annihilates the very ovarian cell that the cancer came from, because this cell should not be present anywhere else in the body. I see a lot of work targeting mutations and granted this is a gold standard, but I have a suspicion that this is extremely difficult when considering the different mutations and cell types, i wonder if just targeting the cell type would be possible and if so could be a life saver for many.

@@rozinaakter2220 targeted therapy is done at hospital, doctors will alternate between it and chemotherapy. They say it has better results than chemo because they analyse first the type of tumor someone has and then they administer the treatment accordingly. Normally, both should be free of charge for insured people.
