Best Answer

Cancer, and there are actually hundreds of types, are all treated in their own special way. Surgery to remove tumors if there are any, radiation to reduce the size of tumors, chemotherapy(drugs that kill off the bad cancerous cells) immunotherapy (drugs given to strengthen the immune system) and any combination of the above. Cancer research has come a very long way in the last 20 years and cancers that were once incurable are now kept under control and put into remission. Transplant of Bone Marrow and even Stem cells are used.
