Treatments options

✢ Your specialist will discuss the treatment that is best for your cancer type, stage and grade, usually a combination of surgery and cycles of chemotherapy or radiotherapy.

✢ Some cancer types respond to targeted therapies olaparib and niraparib – medicines that change the way that cells work, helping to stop cancer from growing and spreading. ✢ Research into newer, better treatments is ongoing through clinical trials. If you are interested, ask your care team whether you may be suitable for participating.
