Types Of Breast Cancer

based on Stages types of breast cancer images

Breast cancer is classified into stages based on tumor size, spread to nearby lymph nodes, and whether it has metastasized to other parts of the body. breast-cancer vector arrow breast-cancer vector arrow

check image

Stage 0 (In Situ)

Cancer cells are confined to the ducts or lobules and haven't spread to neaby tissues.

Stage 0 (In Situ)

Stage 0 breast cancer is a very early form of cancer where abnormal cells are confined to the ducts or lobules. These cells have not spread to surrounding breast tissue or beyond. This stage is non-invasive and includes ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), which is often detected through routine mammograms. Early detection and treatment can prevent progression to invasive breast cancer.

The key types of Stage 0 (In Situ) for breast cancer include:

Surgery - Lumpectomy or mastectomy to remove the affected tissue.

Radiation Therapy: - Often used after lumpectomy to reduce the risk of recurrence.

Hormone Therapy - May be recommended for hormone receptor-positive cases to prevent new cancer development.

Stage I (Early Stage)

Cancer has started invading surrounding breast tissue and may or may not have spread to nearby lymph nodes.

Read More

Stage I (Early Stage)

Stage I breast cancer indicates that the cancer has started to invade surrounding breast tissue but remains localized and small (up to 2 centimeters in size). In some cases, cancer may have spread to 1–3 nearby lymph nodes.

The key types of Stage I (Early Stage) for breast cancer include:

Surgery - Lumpectomy or mastectomy to remove the tumor.

Radiation Therapy - Often follows surgery to target remaining cancer cells.

Systemic Therapy - Hormone therapy, chemotherapy, or targeted therapy may be used based on the tumor's biology.

Stage II (Early Advanced)

Cancer may involve more of the breast tissue and may have spread to nearby lymph nodes.

Read More

Stage II (Early Advanced)

Stage II breast cancer involves larger tumors (2–5 centimeters) or cancer that has spread to nearby lymph nodes. This stage signifies localized advancement but no distant metastasis.

Common treatments for Stage 0 Stage II (Early Advanced) cancer include:

Surgery - Breast-conserving surgery or mastectomy with lymph node evaluation.

Chemotherapy - Administered before or after surgery to shrink the tumor or prevent recurrence.

Radiation Therapy - Used post-surgery to target the affected breast area.

Targeted or Hormone Therapy - Depending on the tumor's receptor status.

Stage III (Locally Advanced)

Stage III breast cancer is more advanced and involves larger tumors, extensive lymph node involvement, or cancer spread to nearby tissues such as the skin or chest wall. It remains confined to the breast area and has not spread to distant organs.

Common treatments for Stage 0 Stage III (Locally Advanced) cancer include:

Neoadjuvant Therapy - Chemotherapy or hormone therapy to shrink the tumor before surgery.

Surgery: - Mastectomy or lumpectomy, often accompanied by lymph node removal.

Radiation Therapy - Used to eliminate remaining cancer cells after surgery.

Systemic Therapies - Targeted therapy, chemotherapy, or hormone therapy depending on the tumor characteristics.

Stage IV (Metastatic)

Cancer has spread to other parts of the body, such as the bones, liver, lungs, or brain.

Read More

Stage IV (Metastatic)

Stage IV breast cancer, also known as metastatic breast cancer, has spread to distant parts of the body, such as bones, liver, lungs, or brain. At this stage, treatment focuses on managing symptoms, slowing the progression of the disease, and improving quality of life.

Common treatments for Stage 0 Stage IV (Metastatic) cancer include:

Systemic Therapies - Hormone therapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or immunotherapy to control cancer growth.

Radiation Therapy - Used to manage symptoms and improve quality of life in specific areas affected by cancer.

Supportive Care - Palliative treatments to alleviate symptoms and enhance comfort.

Triple-Negative

harder to treat than other breast cancers and more likely to come back.

Read More

Triple-Negative

TNBC is ER-negative, PR-negative, and HER2-negative, meaning it doesn’t have any of the receptors that most treatments target. This subtype makes up about 10-20% of breast cancers and is more common in younger women, particularly those of African descent or with BRCA1 mutations.

Treatment Options:

Chemotherapy - Since TNBC does not have ER, PR, or HER2 receptors, hormone therapies and HER2-targeted treatments are not effective. Chemotherapy is the primary treatment, often used before or after surgery to shrink the tumor or reduce the risk of recurrence.

Immunotherapy - In some cases, immunotherapy may be combined with chemotherapy to enhance the body's immune response against the cancer.

PARP Inhibitors - For patients with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations, PARP inhibitors may be used to block cancer cells from repairing DNA damage, leading to their destruction.

Additional Treatments - Surgery and radiation therapy are frequently part of the treatment approach, especially for localized tumors.

Luminal A & Luminal B

subtype of hormone receptor-positive breast cancer, classified based on the gene expression profile of the tumor.

Read More

Luminal A & Luminal B

Luminal A tumors are ER-positive and/or PR-positive, HER2-negative, and have low levels of a protein called Ki-67, which indicates how fast the cancer cells are growing.

Treatment Options:

Hormone Therapy - The primary treatment is hormone therapy, which either blocks estrogen receptors or reduces estrogen levels. Since Luminal A tumors are typically estrogen receptor (ER) and/or progesterone receptor (PR) positive, hormone therapy is highly effective.

Additional Treatments - Depending on individual risk factors, surgery (such as a lumpectomy or mastectomy) and radiation therapy may be recommended. Chemotherapy is generally not necessary due to the slow growth of these tumors.

Chemotherapy - More likely to be needed than for Luminal A tumors, particularly if the tumor is more aggressive or has a higher growth rate, indicated by markers like Ki-67.

HER2-Targeted Therapy - If the tumor is HER2-positive, targeted therapies are added to block the HER2 protein, which fuels cancer growth.

HER2-Enriched

All breast cells have an excess of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2.

Read More

HER2-Enriched

HER2-enriched tumors are ER-negative, PR-negative, but HER2-positive. They tend to grow quickly and can be more aggressive, but they often respond well to HER2-targeted therapies.

Treatment Options:

HER2-Targeted Therapy - The key treatment is HER2-targeted therapy, which blocks the HER2 protein on the cancer cells, slowing or stopping their growth.

Chemotherapy - Typically combined with HER2-targeted therapy to maximize effectiveness, especially if the tumor is high-risk or large.

Additional Treatments - Surgery and radiation therapy may also be part of the treatment plan, particularly if the tumor has spread to nearby tissues.

Treatment Plan

Treatment for pediatric cancer depends on several factors, including the type, stage of the disease, and the patient’s overall health.

Surgery

Surgery for lung cancer is typically an option when the cancer is in its early stages and localized, meaning it hasn't spread to other parts of the body. It is most effective for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and can be curative when the tumor can be fully removed. However, surgery may not be suitable for patients with advanced cancer, poor lung function, or other medical conditions.

The key types of Surgery for lung cancer include:

Lobectomy - The most common procedure, where an entire lobe of the lung containing the tumor is removed

Pneumonectomy - This involves removing an entire lung when the cancer has spread throughout one lung and cannot be treated with a smaller surger

Segmentectomy or Wedge Resection - A less invasive option where only a small portion of the lung with the tumor is removed, often for smaller, early-stage tumors or patients unable to undergo a full lobectomy.

Radiation Therapy

Radiation therapy is a key treatment for lung cancer, especially when surgery isn't an option due to the stage of cancer or the patient's health. It can be used to shrink tumors, either as a primary treatment or to help manage symptoms in advanced stages. In cases where cancer has spread to the brain, radiation can be crucial for symptom control and improving quality of life.
For small cell lung cancer (SCLC), brain irradiation is often used preventively, even if no brain metastases are detected. This is called *prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI)*, and it aims to reduce the risk of the cancer spreading to the brain, which is common in small cell lung cancer.

The key types of Radiation Therapy for lung cancer include:

External Beam Radiation Therapy (EBRT) - The most common method, where high-energy beams target the tumor from outside the body.

Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) - A highly precise method for smaller, early-stage tumors, delivering concentrated doses to the cancer while sparing nearby healthy tissue.

Brachytherapy - Internal radiation, where radioactive material is placed inside or near the tumor, often used for cancers that are obstructing airways.

Chemotherapy

Chemotherapy is a primary treatment option for lung cancer, especially when surgery is not viable. It targets rapidly growing cancer cells throughout the body, making it effective for both early-stage and advanced cancers. Chemotherapy can be administered before surgery to shrink tumors, after surgery to kill remaining cells, or on its own to control the disease and alleviate symptoms.

The key types of Chemotherapy for lung cancer include:

Standard Chemotherapy - This involves the use of medications that target and kill rapidly dividing cancer cells throughout the body. It's often used in combination with other treatments to enhance effectiveness.

Combination Chemotherapy - Two or more chemotherapy agents are combined to increase the chances of success. This approach helps attack the cancer from multiple angles, often producing better results than single-agent treatments.

Maintenance Chemotherapy - After initial treatment, maintenance chemotherapy may be given over a longer period to keep the cancer in check and prevent recurrence. This is typically used when the cancer has responded well to initial treatment and aims to prolong control of the disease.

Targeted Therapy

Targeted therapy is an advanced treatment for lung cancer that focuses on specific molecules involved in cancer growth, offering a more precise approach than traditional chemotherapy. This therapy is often used for patients whose cancer has certain genetic mutations, helping to block cancer's ability to grow and spread, while typically causing fewer side effects.

The key types of Targeted Therapy for lung cancer include:

Growth Inhibitors - These therapies block signals that tell cancer cells to grow uncontrollably. By interfering with these signals, they help slow or stop tumor growth.

Blood Supply Blockers - This approach targets the blood vessels that supply the tumor with oxygen and nutrients. By cutting off the blood flow, it starves the cancer cells, limiting their ability to grow and spread.

Mutation-Specific Inhibitors - These therapies focus on specific genetic mutations found in the cancer cells. By targeting these mutations, they can more effectively attack cancer while sparing healthy cells.

Palliative Care

Palliative care for lung cancer focuses on improving the quality of life for patients by managing symptoms, relieving pain, and addressing emotional, social, and spiritual needs. It is appropriate at any stage of cancer and can be provided alongside curative treatments. The goal is to ease the burden of cancer symptoms like breathlessness, fatigue, and pain, while also supporting the patient and their family in coping with the disease.

The key types of Palliative Care for lung cancer include:

Symptom Management - Tailored interventions to control pain, nausea, difficulty breathing, and other symptoms, improving the patient's comfort and daily functioning.

Emotional and Psychological Support - Counseling and mental health care to help patients and their families cope with the emotional impact of lung cancer.

Coordination of Care - Palliative care teams work with other healthcare providers to ensure seamless, comprehensive care that aligns with the patient’s goals and preferences.

Surgery

In oncology, surgery involves physically removing the tumor and, sometimes, nearby tissues or lymph nodes to eliminate cancer from the body. It is often the first line of treatment for many solid tumors.

../../assets/hysterectomy/ourServices/popup/chemotherapy.png

Chemotherapy

Chemotherapy uses powerful drugs to kill rapidly dividing cancer cells throughout the body. It can be used alone or in combination with other treatments to reduce the risk of cancer returning or to shrink tumors before surgery.

../../assets/hysterectomy/ourServices/popup/radiationTherapy.png

Radiation Therapy

Radiation therapy uses high-energy radiation to damage the DNA of cancer cells, causing them to die or stop dividing. It can be used as a primary treatment or to shrink tumors before surgery and kill remaining cancer cells afterward.
