What Is Cancer?
CANCER is a complex of diseases which occurs when normal cells mutate into
abnormal cells that take over normal tissue, eventually harming and destroying the host
![Page 5: NCM 104 Cellular Aberration Lecture 2007](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051322/545dfc97b1af9fe1538b4814/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
WHAT IS CANCER• A large group of diseases
characterized by:– Uncontrolled growth and spread of
abnormal cells– Proliferation (rapid reproduction by cell
division)– Metastasis (spread or transfer of cancer
cells from one organ or part to another not directly connected)

Classification of Cancer• According to Behavior of Tumor• Benign - tumors that cannot spread
by invasion or metastasis; hence, they only grow locally
• Malignant - tumors that are capable of spreading by invasion and metastasis. By definition, the term “cancer” applies only to malignant tumors
![Page 26: NCM 104 Cellular Aberration Lecture 2007](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051322/545dfc97b1af9fe1538b4814/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

Malignant versus Benign Tumors

• tissue growth based on an excessive rate of cell division, leading to a larger than usual number of cells; the process of hyperplasia is potentially reversible; can be a normal tissue response to an irritating stimulus. An example is a callus

Patterns of cell Proliferation• Metaplasia
• conversion of one type of cell in a tissue to another type not normal for that tissue
• Anaplasia • change in the DNA cell structure and
orientation to one another, characterized by loss of differentiation and a return to a more primitive form.
• Neoplasia• uncontrolled cell growth, either benign or
malignant
![Page 33: NCM 104 Cellular Aberration Lecture 2007](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051322/545dfc97b1af9fe1538b4814/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Metastasis• Metastasis: 3 stages
– Invasion – neoplastic cells from primary tumor invade into surrounding tissue with penetration of blood or lymph.
– Spread – tumor cells spread through lymph or circulation or by direct expansion
– Establishment and growth – tumor cells are established and grow in secondary site: lymph nodes or in organs from venous circulation
![Page 34: NCM 104 Cellular Aberration Lecture 2007](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051322/545dfc97b1af9fe1538b4814/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

R
Cancer Tends to Involve Multiple Mutations
Malignant cells invade neighboring tissues, enter blood vessels, and metastasize to different sites
More mutations, more genetic instability, metastatic disease
Proto-oncogenes mutate to oncogenes
Mutations inactivate DNA repair genes
Cells proliferate
Mutation inactivates suppressor gene
Benign tumor cells grow only locally and cannot spread by invasion or metastasis

Effects of Cancer• Paraneoplastic Syndromes: ectopic
sites with excess hormone production– ↑ Parathyroid hormone→ hypercalcemia– ↑ secretion of insulin→ hypoglycemia– ↑ Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) → fluid
retention, HTN & peripheral edema
• ↑ Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH): cause excessive secretion of cortisone (ie: fluid retention, ↑ glucose levels)

Tumor Staging and GradingTumor Staging and Grading• Staging determines size of tumor and
existence of metastasis• Grading classifies tumor cells by type
of tissue• The TNM system is based on the
extent of the tumor (T), the extent of spread to the lymph nodes (N), and the presence of metastasis (M).
![Page 68: NCM 104 Cellular Aberration Lecture 2007](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051322/545dfc97b1af9fe1538b4814/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
Primary Tumor (T)
TX Primary tumor cannot be evaluated
T0 No evidence of primary tumor
Tis Carcinoma in situ (early cancer that has not spread to neighboring tissue)
T1, T2, T3, T4 Size and/or extent of the primary tumor
Regional Lymph Nodes (N)
NX Regional lymph nodes cannot be evaluated
N0 No regional lymph node involvement (no cancer found in the lymph nodes)
N1, N2, N3 Involvement of regional lymph nodes (number and/or extent of spread)
Distant Metastasis (M)
MX Distant metastasis cannot be evaluated
M0 No distant metastasis (cancer has not spread to other parts of the body)
M1 Distant metastasis (cancer has spread to distant parts of the body)

TREATMENT MODALITIESTREATMENT MODALITIES• Aimed towards:
– CURE - free of disease after treatment → normal life
– Control - Goal for chronic cancers– Palliative Care: Quality of life maintained
at highest level for the longest possible time

• Surgery – surgical removal of tumors; most commonly used treatment
• Preventive or prophylactic• Diagnostic surgery• Curative surgery• Reconstructive surgery• Palliative surgery
• Chemotherapy – use of antineoplastic drugs to promote tumor cell death, by interfering with cellular functions and reproduction
![Page 85: NCM 104 Cellular Aberration Lecture 2007](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051322/545dfc97b1af9fe1538b4814/html5/thumbnails/85.jpg)
• Radiotherapy – directing high-energy ionizing radiation to destroy malignant tumor cells without harming surrounding tissues – Teletherapy (external): radiation
delivered in uniform dose to tumor– Brachytherapy: delivers high dose to
tumor and less to other tissues; radiation source is placed in tumor or next to it
![Page 86: NCM 104 Cellular Aberration Lecture 2007](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051322/545dfc97b1af9fe1538b4814/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)
• Immunotherapy – use of chemical or microbial agents to induce mobilization of immune defenses.
• Biologic response modifiers (BRMs) – use of agents that alters immunologic relationship between tumor and host in a beneficial way
![Page 87: NCM 104 Cellular Aberration Lecture 2007](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051322/545dfc97b1af9fe1538b4814/html5/thumbnails/87.jpg)
