Support nutrition and overall strength before and after treatment
These measures support other treatments but do not replace medical or surgical care.
Control symptoms, manage nutrition, and support the digestive system during treatment
Note Medical management is often used alongside surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation rather than alone.
Remove the tumor and affected surrounding tissue
Surgery is typically recommended once staging confirms the tumor is operable; for international patients, this decision is usually made within the first few weeks of diagnosis rather than after prolonged conservative treatment.
Shrink the tumor before surgery or eliminate remaining cancer cells afterward
May be given before surgery, after surgery, or as the main treatment when surgery is not suitable.
Target remaining cancer cells and reduce recurrence risk
Usually combined with chemotherapy rather than used as a standalone treatment.
