At KIMS, we offer advanced chemotherapy treatments for prostate cancer as part of our comprehensive care under the Renal Sciences and Urology Department. Chemotherapy uses powerful anti-cancer drugs to destroy cancer cells or slow their growth, especially when the cancer has spread beyond the prostate gland or has not responded to other treatments like hormone therapy.
Chemotherapy is typically recommended for patients with advanced or metastatic prostate cancer. It is also considered when hormone therapy alone is no longer effective. The treatment works by targeting fast-growing cancer cells, helping to reduce tumor size, relieve symptoms, and improve quality of life.
At KIMS, our experienced oncologists use the latest chemotherapy protocols and drug combinations such as docetaxel and cabazitaxel, tailored to each patient’s specific condition and response. These medications are usually administered intravenously in cycles, allowing the body to recover between sessions. Our team ensures that every treatment is carefully monitored to manage side effects and maintain patient comfort.
While chemotherapy may cause temporary side effects like fatigue, nausea, hair loss, or lowered immunity, our dedicated support team provides personalized care and guidance throughout the process. We also combine chemotherapy with other therapies such as hormone treatment, targeted therapy, and pain management when required, to ensure a holistic approach.
With cutting-edge infrastructure, skilled medical professionals, and a patient-centered philosophy, KIMS is committed to delivering the highest standards of cancer care. Our goal is not just to treat the disease but to support every patient’s journey with compassion, clarity, and confidence.
