Our prostate cancer treatments
The UT Health East Texas HOPE Cancer Center provides comprehensive genitourinary cancer treatments. Our team of specialists will evaluate your diagnosis and determine a treatment plan that works best for your individual needs.
Your treatment plan may include any combination of the following:
- Chemotherapy: Cancer-fighting medication circulates in the bloodstream, killing cancer cells. This treatment may be recommended if cancer has spread beyond the prostate gland.
- Hormone therapy: This medication blocks hormone production, or changes the way your hormones work. Hormone therapy may involve removing organs that secrete hormones.
- Laser surgery: This minimally-invasive treatment option removes the prostate gland and surrounding tissue.Laser surgery is completed at our offices, and offers patients quicker recovery times. Typically, patients do not need to stay at the hospital overnight.
- Radiation therapy: Radiation therapy uses high energy particles or waves to treat cancer cells.
We also offer prostate cancer screening services. Please call 903-592-6152 to learn more.
