The Future of Precision Cancer Care
At Shabaha Cancer Centre, we believe that cancer treatment should be as unique as your DNA. Traditional treatments often take a “broad” approach, but our Targeted Therapy focuses on precision. By identifying the specific molecular markers and proteins that allow your cancer to grow, we use advanced medications to attack the disease directly, leaving your healthy cells unharmed.
Why Targeted Therapy?
How We Integrate Precision into Your Care
Targeted therapy is changing the landscape of oncology, and we are proud to be leaders in making this technology accessible to the Kenyan market.
- Surgical Accuracy at a Molecular Level: Unlike chemotherapy, which affects all fast-growing cells, targeted drugs are designed to “find and fix” the specific abnormalities within cancer cells.
- Significantly Fewer Side Effects: Because healthy cells are largely spared, patients often experience less hair loss, nausea, and fatigue, allowing you to maintain a better quality of life.
- Evidence-Based Protocols: Our lead consultant, Dr. Noordin Bashir Somo, utilizes international genomic standards to ensure your therapy is matched perfectly to your tumor’s profile.
- Enhanced Results: When the right drug meets the right target, the chances of stopping or slowing the growth of the cancer increase significantly.
We don't just provide a drug; we provide a comprehensive treatment ecosystem.
- Molecular Testing & Staging: We coordinate advanced diagnostic testing to identify the genetic mutations driving your cancer.
- Customized Infusion or Oral Care: Depending on your plan, you may receive treatment in our modern infusion suite or through specialized oral medications dispensed from our in-house pharmacy.
- Combination Excellence: We often pair Targeted Therapy with Immunotherapy or Radiotherapy to create a multi-angled attack on the disease.
- Continuous Real-Time Monitoring: Our oncology team tracks your response to the therapy closely, adjusting dosages or medications as your body responds to the treatment.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
No. While both involve medications, chemotherapy attacks all rapidly dividing cells (including healthy ones), whereas Targeted Therapy interferes with specific molecules needed for tumor growth. This makes it a more "refined" and often less toxic treatment option.
