42^nd Euro-Global Summit on Cancer Therapy & Radiation Oncology August 26-27, 2020 Barcelona, Spain

Cancer can occur anywhere in the body. The most common spots of cancer among men include prostate, lung, colon, stomach, rectum and liver. And those for among women are breast, colon, rectum, stomach, cervix and lung. Cancers are habitually described by the body part that they devised in. However, some body parts contain multiple types of tissue, so for greater precision, cancers can additionally be classified by the type of cell that the tumour cells originated from. The type of cancer a person has needed to be known properly as different types of cancer can behave very differently and respond to different treatments.

Cancer was reflected as deadly disease few years ago, but now the progress has changed thanks to developments made in the cancer field. There are various therapies available now to treat and diagnose cancer. The Targeted Cancer Therapy is one of the best therapies available, in which the cancer cells are treated by targeting and inhibiting specific molecules that are responsible for tumour progression. This blocking can be done by medicine. The Cancer Case Reports shows that Stem Cell Therapy is also a productive treatment for cancer. Cancer biomarkers help in finding tumour cells and treating them. Tumour Immunology plays a vital role in finding the new approaches for cancer therapeutics. Cancer Conferences demonstrate its effort to jettison cancer from the world.

The branch of Oncology dealing with Radiation therapy is defined as Radiation Oncology. Radiation oncology is a medical field that involves the organized use of radiation to treat cancer either for treatment or to reduce pain and signs caused by cancer. Radiation Oncology encompasses all aspects of research that impacts on the diagnosis of cancer using radiation. Radiation can be given as a curative modality, in combination with surgery or chemotherapy. The Radiation therapy is broadly segmented into Tele Radiotherapy, Brachy-radiotherapy and Metabolic Radiotherapy. There are three unique Radiology expert professions which are involved in exercise of radiation oncology 1. Radiation Oncologists 2. Radiation Therapists 3. Radiation Oncology Medical Physicists. These highly qualified medical consultants who use advanced tools on Cancer patients to deliver safe and effective radiation therapy with few side effects as possible.

Use of Radiation to kill diseased cells has become a standard diagnosis option for a wide range of malignancies. It utilizes X-rays, gamma rays, electron beams or protons to treat cancer. Radiotherapy can be used in three modalities: – Adjuvant radiotherapy, Palliative radiotherapy and Curative radiotherapy. Among all the available Anti-cancer therapies, Radiation therapy is the most conventional method for treating Cancers. Success depends on early diagnosis, the volume and histological nature of the Cancer. Techniques in Radiation therapy include Gamma Knife surgery, Medical dosimetry, Three-Dimensional Conformal Radiation Therapy, Triggered imaging radiosurgery, Brachytherapy, External Beam Radiation Therapy, Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy, mage-Guided Radiotherapy, radioisotope therapy, Total Body Irradiation, Total Skin Irradiation and Stereotactic body radiation therapy.

Most cancers are a set of more than a hundred syndromes that expand all the way through time in any of the body’s materials. Each type of cancer has its particular capabilities; the simple procedures that produce most cancers are pretty comparable in all sorts of the diseases. A case record is the identified document of signs and symptoms, prognosis, remedies of the exceptional wounded of positive scientific records with unique therapeutic strategies. As about 7.6 million of latest instances of malignancy documented every year, half of them are from developing countries. Case reports will be up to date from all the statistics from the beyond.

Clinical Oncology embraces full range of Nonsurgical Cancers including the Chemotherapy, Radiotherapy, Palliative care and Biological targeted therapy. Clinical oncologists give Solid tumours with Chemotherapy, Conventional Radiotherapy, Brachytherapy, Biological therapy, Molecular targeted therapy and sometimes with multimodality trades that include the blend of two or more Anti-cancer therapies. Clinical oncologists regulate treatment by considering a range of aspects including tumour type, the site of the tumour, the stage of the disease and the patient’s general health. They then assess the relative merits of different diagnosis before presenting these to the patient so that an informed decision can be made. The branch also comprises the study of Cancer staging, Cancer epidemiology, Brachytherapy, Cancer biostatistics etc.

A cancer biomarker refers to a constituent or method that is indicative of the existence of cancer in the body. A biomarker may be a molecule concealed by a tumour or a particular response of the body to the existence of cancer. Epigenetic, proteomic, genetic, glycomic, and imaging biomarkers can be recycled for cancer diagnosis, prognosis, and epidemiology. While some cancer biomarkers can be used to forecast how violently your cancer will grow, and are therefore useful for evaluating your prognosis, the most favourable use of biomarkers today is to recognize which therapies a patient’s cancer may or may not react to.

Diagnostics plays an important role throughout Cancer treatment. Before treatment, to accurately locate Tumours, stage the disease, and determine an appropriate combination of cancer diagnosis. Diagnostics are used to track the size of the tumour, progression of the disease, and patient response to treatment, and modify your treatment accordingly. To confirm the diagnosis of most cancers, a liquid Biopsy needs is to be performed in which a tissue sample is removed from the tumour which occurred initially and studied under a microscope for detecting cancer cells. Endoscopy can be done by implanting a flexible plastic tube with a minute camera into body cavities or organs. Cancer Screening tests are used to detect the possibility of tumour cells which is present before symptoms occur. To identify cancer at its initial stage, different types of diagnostic tests are used to Screen at-risk individuals, Monitor treatment efficacy and disease progression or recurrence, Predict prognosis and direct treatment, Monitor an asymptomatic population for the early discovery of cancer, Earlier detection and treatment consequently drops cancer mortality, Diagnose a primary cancer and recognize the cancer subtype after whole cancer treatment, to display for any signs of metastasis or recurrence.

Cancer or its dealings can lower your resistance to infection and make you more likely to catch the other diseases. There are many diverse types of cancer drugs. Some medications can treat cancer and the others help to dismiss symptoms such as aching and sickness. The type of drugs you need to use for cure of your cancer depends on what type of cancer you have. Drug therapies work in various ways to extinguish cancer cells and discontinue them from diffusion or slow down their progress. Anticancer drugs or anticancer agents are used in Cancer. Drugs may also be used to decrease or relieve side effects of cancer and its treatment.

Hematology- Oncology is the division of medicine associated to the study of diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of blood diseases and cancer. It includes such diseases as iron deficiency anemia, hemophilia, sickle cell disease, the thalassemia, leukemia and lymphoma. The study of hematology integrates clinical and laboratory medicine. Leukemia affects your white blood cells. These are major, infection-fighting part of your immune system, made in your bone marrow. The cancerous formation affecting the lymphocytes is called as lymphoma. Lymphocytes are one of the variabilities of white blood corpuscles. As part of Myeloma, the plasma is affected by the tumor cells. Blood cancers can cause many different symptoms. Some are mutual across all blood cancers, others are more distinctive of types of blood cancer. For example, lymphomas can be recognized by swollen lymph nodes and one of the most common symptoms of myeloma is bone pain, especially in the back.

Many factors influence the development of cancer. Over the last 35 years, science has shown that physical activity, diet and body weight—especially being overheavy or obese is major risk influences for developing certain types of cancer. About a third of the most mutual cancers could be prohibited through lifestyle changes. The main interactive and environmental risk factors for cancer humanity in the world are related to diet use of addictive substances, sexual and generative health and contact to air pollution and use of polluted needles. The body’s capability to resist cancer may be facilitated by following a healthy diet, staying physically active, and avoiding excess body fat.  Cancer and cancer treatments can also distress your body's ability to endure certain foods and use nutrients.
