?? Lung cancer is the most common group of malignant tumors in the world, which develops from cells in the lungs and bronchi. It develops 10% more often in men than in women. Today, Germany can offer new treatment methods, which allow for achieving excellent results even at stage 4 of the pathology. The patients' life quality can be improved, and their life expectancy can be increased as well.
New treatments for lung cancer stage 4 are aimed at increasing life expectancy, improving its quality, preventing, and eliminating complications. To achieve success in therapy, German oncologists use such methods as:
?? Embolization of tumor vessels is a minimally invasive surgical method, which consists in blocking blood flow in the vessels supplying the malignant tumor.
?? Embolization is often combined with localized chemotherapy. This procedure is called transarterial chemoembolization. It uses microspheres saturated with chemotherapy drugs.
?? Immunotherapy is a drug treatment based on the usage of checkpoint inhibitors (blockers). The drugs completely suppress the activity of tumor-masking molecules, which allows the immune system to attack the tumor.

?? Targeted therapy is the treatment with medications that block the growth and spread of a tumor by affecting the cellular mechanisms involved in this process.
?? Lung cancer often spreads metastases to the brain. If the tumor and its metastases are well controlled, doctors in Germany appoint neurosurgical interventions to remove neoplasms in the central nervous system. They are often performed using robot-assisted equipment. It means that the intervention is performed by a robot, while the doctor only controls this process.
