Multimodal cancer therapy

Multimodal cancer therapy, often referred to simply as multimodal therapy or multimodal cancer care, is an approach for treatment of cancer that combines radiation and chemotherapy[1] or other multiple therapeutic modalities.

[1][2] For example, in the case of mesotheliomas, treatments combine modalities such as surgery, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and radiotherapy.

[3] Multimodal treatments can often have synergistic effects leading to better clinical outcomes.

[4] Diverse types of cancer can be treated via a multimodal approach, including non-small cell lung cancer[5] and gastric cancer.
