What is Metronomic Therapy?

Metronomic therapy is an innovative cancer treatment that targets tumors by inhibiting their blood supply (anti-angiogenesis), effectively preventing cancer cells from growing and spreading. It also enhances the immune system’s ability to recognize and destroy cancer cells. Unlike traditional chemotherapy, which involves large doses, metronomic therapy uses low, continuous doses of chemotherapy drugs, which are less toxic to healthy cells. This strategy is applied to both primary and metastatic cancers and can be used alone or in combination with other treatments. It offers a more sustainable approach with fewer side effects and improved overall treatment outcomes.

Symptoms That May Require Metronomic Therapy

Metronomic therapy may be recommended for cancers that are resistant to conventional chemotherapy or have returned after treatment. It is especially effective for cancers with limited treatment options or patients who are not suitable candidates for high-dose chemotherapy. Symptoms include persistent or advanced cancer, where traditional therapies have been less effective or have caused significant side effects.

Types of Metronomic Therapy

  • Oral Metronomic Therapy: Administered in the form of oral chemotherapy drugs.
  • Intravenous Metronomic Therapy: Given through intravenous infusion for more targeted action.

Benefits of Metronomic Therapy

  • Fewer Side Effects: Uses low doses, reducing toxic side effects.
  • Continuous Action: Targets cancer growth more effectively with ongoing treatment.
  • Improved Survival Rates: Particularly helpful in advanced or recurrent cancers.
