Dose-dense therapy

Dose-dense therapy is a cancer treatment approach that involves giving chemotherapy drugs more frequently but in the same overall amount. This method shortens the intervals between treatments, allowing the body less time to recover between doses. The aim is to more effectively target and kill cancer cells while potentially reducing the chance of them becoming resistant to the drugs. This strategy is commonly used in breast cancer treatment, where research shows it can improve outcomes by enhancing the effectiveness of the treatment while maintaining manageable side effects for most patients.
