How is Cytotoxicity Relevant to Gynecological Treatments?
Cytotoxicity is particularly relevant in the treatment of gynecological cancers such as cervical, ovarian, and endometrial cancer. Chemotherapy drugs are designed to target and destroy rapidly dividing cancer cells, but they can also affect healthy cells, leading to side effects. Understanding the balance between therapeutic efficacy and cytotoxic side effects is crucial for optimizing treatment plans.
