– Extent of disease
Surgery
• The oldest form of cancer treatment
• Surgery plays important role in initial
diagnosis: biopsy of primary tumor.
• Excision of tumor when possible
• Facilitating treatment: insertion of catheters
for long-term treatment
Radiation Therapy
• The use of ionizing radiation to break apart bonds within
a cell causing cell damage and death.
• External beam therapy accounts for the majority of
radiation treatments in children.
• Problems: radiation beams cannot distinguish between
malignant cells and healthy cells.
Chemotherapy
• Primary treatment modality used to cure
many pediatric cancers.
• Chemotherapy is the use of drugs to destroy
cancer cells.
• The destruction is accomplished by inhibiting
cells within the body to divide, which
eventually leads to cell death.
Chemotherapy
• Can be given in addition to another form of
therapy such as radiation or surgery.
• Drugs may be administered before surgery to
reduce size of tumor.
• Adjuvant chemotherapy is used after surgery
or radiation therapy to prevent relapse.
Chemotherapy
• Combination chemotherapy is the use of more
than one class of drug.
• Administering different classes of chemo
drugs ensures a greater chance of achieving
complete cancer cell destruction and
achieving remission.
Administration
• Chemotherapy can be given by mouth, subcutaneous or
intramuscular injections, intravenously, or intrathecally.
– Oral route used if drug is well absorbed and non
irritating to the GI tract
– Sub-q or IM: Slow systemic release
– IV push, piggyback or intravenous infusion
Goals of Chemotherapy
• Reducing the primary tumor size
• Destroying cancer cells
• Preventing metastases and microscopic spread
of the disease
Chemotherapy Drugs
• Alkylating drug: attack DNA
• Antimetabolites: interfere with DNA production
• Antitumor antibiotics: interferes with DNA production
• Plant alkaloids: prevent cells from dividing
• Steroid hormones: slow growth of some cancers
Bone Marrow Transplant
• HSCT: Hematopoictic Stem Cell Transplant:
CHLA has one of the largest program.
• The option of HSCT depends on the patients
disease, disease status, and general physical
condition.
• Involves:
– Umbilical cord blood
– Parent’s stem cells
Gene Therapy
• Use of gene therapy in the treatment of
childhood cancer is promising yet complex and
still in early phases of clinical application.
Chemotherapy Side Effects
• Nausea/ Vomiting
• Alopecia
• Malaise
• Bone Marrow Depression
– Infection
– Bleeding
– Anemia
• Stomatitis
Three Types of Oncological Emergencies

– Risk of infection related to depressed body
defenses
– Altered nutrition: less than body requirements
related to loss appetite

effect of cancer
– Altered family process related to having a child
with a life threatening disease
