Simply put, metastasis is when the cancer moves from the original organ to another part of the body. The goal of treating metastatic cancer is to control it by stopping or slowing its growth. Some people can live for years with metastatic cancer that is well-controlled. The treatment depends on the type of primary cancer, where it has spread, previous cancer treatments, and general health.
Cancer researchers, at the most basic level, focus their energy on what makes cancer cells start in the first place and what makes it metastasize. We’ve been talking the last few weeks about the basic aspects of cancer and this week we are going to talk about cancer cells going rogue and moving through the body. This is called metastasis, or stage 4 cancer.
