When cancer enters an advanced stage, treatment is no longer just a choice of medical technology, but a systematic project involving scientific decision-making, comprehensive intervention, and humanistic care.

Different tumor types, extent of metastasis, prior treatment history, and the patient’s physical condition will all directly influence the subsequent treatment path.

Therefore, we insist on helping every patient establish a clear and feasible treatment direction through systematic evaluation and a comprehensive multidisciplinary perspective, avoiding repeated trials and focusing on effective treatment.

Analysis of Applicable Population and Consultation Indications

Not all cancer treatments face the same choices. Patients in the advanced stage often require scientific, systematic, and holistic evaluation more than ever.
Seeking professional and comprehensive medical evaluation is especially recommended in the following situations:

  • Newly Diagnosed Malignancy

    Newly Diagnosed Malignancy

    Facing the formulation of an initial treatment plan, or needing to adjust an existing treatment path

  • Poor Response to Traditional Treatment

    Poor Response to Traditional Treatment

    Limited efficacy after surgery, chemotherapy, or radiotherapy, or poor patient tolerance

  • Disease Progression to Advanced Stage

    Disease Progression to Advanced Stage

    Recurrence, metastasis, or reaching Stage IV, urgently requiring systematic disease control strategies

  • Exploring Comprehensive Therapy

    Exploring Comprehensive Therapy

    Patients/families interested in trying diversified treatment modes like minimally invasive interventions, local ablation, or palliative care

We emphasize:  In complex stages of illness, treatment should not be “trial and error,” but a precise choice based on evidence. All treatment recommendations must be formulated jointly by a multidisciplinary team after systematic evaluation, integrating the patient’s specific condition, performance status, past treatment responses, and quality of life goals.

Special Notes on Advanced / Stage IV Cancer

Advanced cancer usually means the tumor has spread or metastasized. Treatment at this stage is no longer limited to local removal but shifts towards comprehensive management focused on disease control, symptom relief, function maintenance, and quality of life improvement.

Treatment GoalSpecific Meaning
Disease Stabilization & ControlProlong progression-free survival and overall survival through a combination of systemic and local interventions
Multidimensional Symptom ReliefTargeted management of pain, dyspnea, malignant effusions, malnutrition, and other tumor-related symptoms
Optimization of Treatment BurdenBalance treatment benefits and risks, avoid overtreatment, and improve treatment adherence
Quality of Life AssuranceMaintain functional status, support return to social roles, and achieve a dignified survival

Our hospital’s Multidisciplinary Team (MDT) integrates clinical, imaging, pathological, genetic, and psychosocial information to build a “Biopsychosocial” comprehensive evaluation system, formulating individualized support plans that are both scientifically rigorous and full of humanistic care.

Introduction to the Minimally Invasive and Comprehensive Treatment System

In advanced cancer treatment, minimally invasive techniques are becoming a key bridge connecting local control and systemic therapy. What we provide is not just a single technique, but a complete, customizable, multi-technology synergistic treatment system.
Modern Cancer Hospital Guangzhou has established a mature system encompassing 18 minimally invasive treatment techniques as a vital part of comprehensive advanced cancer therapy, especially suitable for patients intolerant to major surgery or those needing intensified local control.

Core Technology Matrix

Technology CategoryRepresentative TechniquesEfficacy
BrachytherapyI-125 Seed Implantation
Precise implantation of radioactive seeds into the tumor via image guidance for continuous, high-dose, low-damage internal radiotherapy; suitable for locally recurrent or residual lesions
Interventional Therapy SeriesTransarterial Chemoembolization (TACE), Drug-eluting Bead Embolization, Arterial Infusion Chemotherapy
Significantly increase drug concentration in the tumor area via vascular intervention while blocking blood supply, delivering a dual attack on tumors; suitable for hypervascular tumors like liver cancer and liver metastases
Physical Ablation Techniques SeriesRadiofrequency Ablation, Microwave Ablation, Cryoablation, Nanoknife (Irreversible Electroporation)
Directly destroy tumor cells through thermal effects, cold effects, or electrical pulses; minimally traumatic, quick recovery. Nanoknife is especially suitable for tumors near sensitive structures like blood vessels and bile ducts, avoiding thermal damage
TCM TreatmentInternal and external use of Chinese herbal medicine, acupuncture, moxibustion, acupoint application, TCM dietary therapy
Strengthens the vital foundation. Alleviates fatigue and loss of appetite; reduces side effects of chemotherapy/radiotherapy/targeted therapy, and inhibit tumor metastasis and recurrence; regulates immunity, improves the tumor microenvironment, and enhances quality of life
Integrated Palliative & Supportive CarePain Management, Nutritional Support, Psychological Intervention, Physiotherapy & Rehabilitation
Systematically alleviate symptoms, improve physical strength, and enhance overall quality of life; an indispensable part of advanced cancer treatment

We insist  Minimally invasive treatment is not suitable for all patients. The application of each technique requires strict indication evaluation and multidisciplinary discussion. Our goal is to build an individualized path for you where local treatment synergizes with systemic management, and disease control balances with quality of life, through scientific combination.

When life struck her with a series of devastating blows, 59-year-old Malaysian Chinese FOO AI KIM once believed she was nearing the final chapter of her life’s story. Yet, her cross-border journey for treatment—from Malaysia to China—ultimately turned the page to a brand new beginning. Sudden Onset of Illness: From “ Conventional Treatment ” to Abandoning Therapy In September 2024, FOO AI KIM, who had already entered menopause and stopped menstruating, suddenly experienced irregular periods with heavy bleeding.
