The Latest Mesothelioma Clinical Trials Happening in Summer 2022:
We’ve all heard about the dangers of asbestos exposure. The cancer it can cause may be rare, but it can devastate families. Mesothelioma mainly presents in the pleural lining of the lungs and the abdomen. It can be difficult to detect but leads to chest pain, coughing, difficulty breathing, lumps under the skin of the chest, and unexplained weight loss. Unfortunately, it can take decades to find and diagnose mesothelioma, and once detected, the cancer is notoriously difficult to treat.
Treatments for Mesothelioma
Some of the bellwether treatments for malignant mesothelioma include:
- Surgery,
- Chemotherapy,
- Radiation,
- Immunotherapy clinical trials, and
- Targeted therapies.
The standard course of treatment typically involves surgery, if possible, and chemotherapy in the first round of treatment. But researchers are working on new treatments every day for cancers that don’t respond to chemotherapy, remain after treatment, and come back after treatment.
