  • Radiation therapy Typically chosen when a tumor is inoperable or as an organ-preserving option.
  • Chemotherapy Typically chosen to shrink a tumor before surgery or treat systemic disease.
  • Targeted / immunotherapy Typically chosen when the tumor's biology matches an approved agent.
  • Active surveillance Typically chosen for slow-growing tumors where treatment can safely wait.
