Advances such as new nontoxic, more effective immunotherapy and improvements that significantly reduce recovery times for complicated surgeries are making cancer treatments less taxing. On the horizon are more ways to give patients the greatest chance of survival while also reducing negative consequences of treatment. Some therapies also will improve the experience, such as chemotherapy consisting of quick subcutaneous injections instead of hours in an infusion chair.
I am pleased to begin a new series from City of Hope®, one of the largest and most advanced cancer research and treatment organizations in the U.S. With our National Medical Center ranking among the top 5 for cancer by U.S. News & World Report, we are making a profound and lifesaving difference.
