Systemic Cancer Treatment

Comprehensive Medical
Cancer Care

Medical Oncology at MIO Hospital focuses on the systemic treatment of cancer using medications that travel through the bloodstream to reach cancer cells throughout the body. Our goal is to treat cancer effectively while preserving quality of life through personalized, evidence-based treatment plans.

Every patient is evaluated through a multidisciplinary tumor board involving radiation oncologists, surgical oncologists, radiologists, and pathologists to ensure an integrated treatment approach.

Cancer Treatments We Offer

Personalized systemic treatment options based on tumor biology and patient health

Chemotherapy

Uses anti-cancer drugs to destroy rapidly dividing cancer cells — administered IV, orally, or by injection. Our Day Care Chemotherapy allows patients to receive treatment and return home the same day.

Targeted Therapy

Focuses on specific molecular pathways in cancer growth. More precise than traditional chemotherapy with fewer systemic side effects — customized based on tumor biology.

Immunotherapy

Boosts the immune system to recognize and destroy cancer cells. Commonly used in lung cancer, melanoma, kidney cancer, and certain head & neck cancers.

Hormonal Therapy

Used in hormone-sensitive cancers such as breast cancer and prostate cancer. Blocks or lowers hormone levels that fuel tumor growth.
