Lung cancer can spread to different parts of your body, which is known as metastasis. Lung cancer commonly metastasizes to areas such as the brain, bones, liver, and adrenal glands. When cancer spreads, it can lead to undesirable symptoms in the organs it affects.

➡️ Pain:
Pain can occur in the chest or anywhere the lung cancer has spread. Typically, pain is felt when the disease has advanced.

➡️ Lung Problems:
If cancer blocks your airways, you might experience shortness of breath. Sometimes, breathing difficulties are caused by pleural effusion (fluid buildup around the lungs). When fluid accumulates, it makes it harder for your lungs to expand when you take a breath fully.

➡️ Nerve Problems:
Lung cancer can sometimes grow into and damage nerves, resulting in many different types of symptoms, including nerve-related pain, also known as neuropathy. Cancer treatments may also be to blame for this complication.

➡️ Heart Issues:
Some lung tumors can grow near the heart or major vessels in your body. When this happens, certain veins and arteries may become blocked, which can cause swelling in the chest, neck, or face.

➡️ Swallowing Difficulties:
If cancer grows near the esophagus (the tube connecting your throat to your stomach), you might experience difficulty swallowing. Some people also report feeling more pain when eating or drinking.

Osimertinib is a medicine that can significantly improve the survival rate for patients with advanced lung cancer with EGFR mutations.

What is hepatitis C?

Hepatitis C is a liver infection caused by the hepatitis C virus. Hepatitis C can range from a mild illness lasting a few weeks to a serious, long-term illness. Hepatitis C is often described as “acute,” meaning a new infection, or “chronic,” meaning long-term infection.
➡️ Acute hepatitis C occurs within the first 6 months after someone is exposed to the hepatitis C virus. Hepatitis C can be a short-term illness, but for most people, acute infection leads to chronic infection.
➡️ Chronic hepatitis C can be a lifelong infection if left untreated. Chronic hepatitis C can cause serious health problems, including liver damage, cirrhosis (scarring of the liver), liver cancer, and even death.

Eltrombopag is approved for treating thrombocytopenia (low blood platelet counts) in patients with chronic hepatitis C to initiate and maintain interferon-based therapy.

Alopecia areata is a common autoimmune disorder that often results in unpredictable hair loss.

Alopecia Symptoms:
The main and often the only symptom of alopecia is hair loss. You may notice:
➡️ Small bald patches on your scalp or other parts of your body.
➡️ Patches may get larger and grow together into a bald spot.
➡️ Hair grows back in one spot and falls out in another.
➡️ You lose a lot of hair over a short time.
➡️ More hair loss in cold weather.
➡️ Fingernails and toenails become red, brittle, and pitted.
➡️ The hair regrows within a few months. It may look white or gray at first but may regain its natural color over time.
➡️ Additional bare patches develop. Sometimes hair regrows in the first patch while new bare patches are forming.
➡️ Small patches join to form larger ones. In rare cases, hair is eventually lost from the entire scalp, called alopecia totalis.
➡️ There is a progression to complete loss of body hair, a type of the disease called alopecia universalis. This is rare.

The bald patches of skin are smooth, with no rash or redness. But you may feel a tingling, itching, or burning sensation on your skin right before the hair falls out.

Tofacent (Tofacitinib) is used for hair fall and bald problems. You can use Tofacitinib to make your hair grow back. Those who suffer from excessive hair loss, scarring, or baldness on their heads can use Tofacitinib. If you are interested, then contact us

When ovarian cancer first develops, it might not cause any noticeable symptoms. When ovarian cancer symptoms happen, they're usually attributed to other, more common conditions. Signs and symptoms of ovarian cancer may include:
⏩ Abdominal bloating or swelling.
⏩ Quickly feeling full when eating.
⏩ Weight loss.
⏩ Discomfort in the pelvic area.
⏩ Fatigue.
⏩ Back pain.
⏩ Changes in bowel habits, such as constipation.
⏩ A frequent need to urinate.

Olaparib is used to treat advanced ovarian cancer or breast cancer in patients with a certain type of BRCA gene mutation. If you want to buy Olaparib, contact us

The development of malignant cells (cancer) in the lung is non-small cell lung cancer. Non-small cell lung cancer is primarily caused by smoking. The symptoms of non-small cell lung cancer include a cough that won't go away and shortness of breath.

Complications of non-small cell lung cancer:
Lung cancer can spread to different parts of your body, which is known as metastasis. Lung cancer commonly metastasizes to areas such as the brain, bones, liver, and adrenal glands. When cancer spreads, it can lead to undesirable symptoms in the organs it affects.

❌ Pain:
Pain can occur in the chest or anywhere the lung cancer has spread. Typically, pain is felt when the disease has advanced.

❌ Lung Problems:
If cancer blocks your airways, you might experience shortness of breath. Sometimes, breathing difficulties are caused by pleural effusion (fluid buildup around the lungs). When fluid accumulates, it makes it harder for your lungs to expand when you take a breath fully.

What is Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs)?

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) start in very early forms of special cells in the wall of the GI tract called the interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs). ICCs are sometimes called the “pacemakers” of the GI tract because they signal the muscles in the GI tract to contract to move food and liquid along.

More than half of GISTs start in the stomach. Most of the others start in the small intestine, but GISTs can start anywhere along the GI tract. A small number of GISTs start outside the GI tract in nearby areas such as the omentum (an apron-like layer of fatty tissue that hangs over the organs in the abdomen) or the peritoneum (the thin lining over the organs and walls inside the abdomen).

Some GISTs seem to be much more likely than others to grow into other areas or spread to other parts of the body. Doctors look at certain factors to help tell whether a GIST is likely to grow and spread quickly, such as:

👉 The size of the tumor
👉 Where it's located in the GI tract
👉 How fast the tumor cells are dividing

Sunitinib is used to treat certain types of cancer (kidney, pancreas, and intestinal). It is also used to treat people at high risk of kidney cancer after having kidney surgery. Sunitinib works by stopping or slowing the growth of cancer tumors. It also works by slowing the growth of new blood vessels within the tumor.

Breast cancer prevention tips:

➡️ You probably know that breastfeeding can give your baby a healthy start. But that’s not the only health benefit. It also can lower your breast cancer risk. Breastfeed your babies for as long as possible. Women who breastfeed their babies for at least a year in total have a reduced risk of developing breast cancer later.

What is Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)?

About 80% to 85% of lung cancers are NSCLC. The main subtypes of NSCLC are adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and large cell carcinoma. These subtypes, which start from different types of lung cells are grouped together as NSCLC because their treatment and prognoses (outlook) are often similar.

➡️ Adenocarcinoma: Adenocarcinomas start in the cells that would normally secrete substances such as mucus.

This type of lung cancer occurs mainly in people who currently smoke or formerly smoked, but it is also the most common type of lung cancer seen in people who don't smoke. It is more common in women than in men, and it is more likely to occur in younger people than other types of lung cancer.

Adenocarcinoma is usually found in the outer parts of the lung and is more likely to be found before it has spread.

People with a type of adenocarcinoma called adenocarcinoma in situ (previously called bronchioloalveolar carcinoma) tend to have a better outlook than those with other types of lung cancer.

➡️ Squamous cell carcinoma: Squamous cell carcinomas start in squamous cells, which are flat cells that line the inside of the airways in the lungs. They are often linked to a history of smoking and tend to be found in the central part of the lungs, near a main airway (bronchus).

➡️ Large cell (undifferentiated) carcinoma: Large cell carcinoma can appear in any part of the lung. It tends to grow and spread quickly, which can make it harder to treat. A subtype of large cell carcinoma, known as large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma, is a fast-growing cancer that is very similar to small cell lung cancer.

➡️ Other subtypes: A few other subtypes of NSCLC, such as adenosquamous carcinoma and sarcomatoid carcinoma, are much less common.

Afatinib is a medicine that can significantly improve the survival rate for patients with advanced lung cancer with EGFR mutations.

What is Renal Cell Cancer (RCC):

Renal cell cancer (also called kidney cancer or renal cell adenocarcinoma) is a disease in which malignant (cancer) cells are found in the lining of tubules (very small tubes) in the kidney. There are 2 kidneys, one on each side of the backbone, above the waist. Tiny tubules in the kidneys filter and clean the blood. They take out waste products and make urine. The urine passes from each kidney through a long tube called a ureter into the bladder. The bladder holds the urine until it passes through the urethra and leaves the body. Cancer that starts in the ureters or the renal pelvis (the part of the kidney that collects urine and drains it to the ureters) is different from renal cell cancer. (See the PDQ summary about Transitional Cell Cancer of the Renal Pelvis and Ureter Treatment for more information).

Cabozantinib treats metastatic medullary thyroid cancer (MTC), advanced renal cell carcinoma, and patients with hepatocellular cancer (HCC) who have previously received sorafenib.
