Cetuximab is an EGFR-targeted therapy used in oral and head and neck cancer. At CION Cancer Clinics, whether it is right for you is a team decision — a tumor board for every patient, a 45-minute detailed consultation, and decisions for healing, not billing.
Cetuximab is an EGFR-targeted therapy used in oral and head and neck cancer. It works by blocking the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) on cancer cells. At CION Cancer Clinics, whether cetuximab is appropriate for you is decided by a tumor board for every patient — not a single doctor — and matched to your specific diagnosis.
Cetuximab may be used together with radiation therapy or chemotherapy, depending on the stage and features of the cancer. Our multi-disciplinary team — medical, surgical, and radiation oncologists together — decides the right combination for each patient. We explain the options, the goals of treatment, and what to expect during a 45-minute detailed consultation before anything begins.
Decisions for healing, not billing. No unnecessary tests. Your first consultation is free and includes a free written second opinion.
We're never more than 30 minutes away. Same panel of specialists at every centre. Same tumour board reviews. Same NCCN protocols. Pick the closest one and call directly — or let us pick for you.
