Side Effects
Cancer and treatments all have side effects. It is hard to kill cancer
cells at the same time as keeping all healthy cells safe. Side effects of
mesothelioma treatment depend on the type of mesothelioma
treatment and the person’s overall health when treatment starts.
Experimental Treatments
Not all patients are cured with standard therapy, and some standard
mesothelioma treatments may have more side effects than are
desired. Clinical trials, therefore, are designed to find better ways to
treat cancer patients and are based on the most up-to-date
information. Clinical trials are ongoing in many parts of the country
for many patients with malignant mesothelioma.
