Treatment Options for Colon Cancer
Surgical Oncology
Our surgical oncologists perform precision tumour resection with oncoplastic reconstruction when appropriate. Surgical options may include:
- Right hemicolectomy (ileocolic resection) with D3 lymph node dissection for caecal/right colon cancers
- Left hemicolectomy with D3 dissection for left colon cancers
- Sigmoid colectomy or high anterior resection with total mesorectal excision (TME) for rectal cancers
Chemotherapy
Evidence-based chemotherapy regimens tailored to your cancer subtype and stage:
- FOLFOX: 5-Fluorouracil + Leucovorin + Oxaliplatin 85 mg/m² in 2-week cycles for stage III
- XELOX: Capecitabine 1000 mg BD for 14 days + Oxaliplatin 130 mg/m² every 3 weeks
Radiation Therapy
Neoadjuvant long-course radiotherapy for T3-T4 or N+ rectal cancers: 50 Gy in 25 fractions over 5 weeks Short-course radiotherapy: 25 Gy in 5 fractions with surgery within 1 week…
Targeted Therapy
For patients with specific molecular mutations, targeted agents offer precision treatment with fewer side effects. Available options include Bevacizumab 5 mg/kg IV every 2 weeks for mCRC (KRAS wild-type or any status).
Immunotherapy
Checkpoint inhibitors activate your immune system to fight cancer cells. Our team uses Pembrolizumab for MMR-deficient/MSI-high colorectal cancer for appropriate patients.
Your treatment plan will be individualised based on your cancer stage, molecular profile, performance status, and personal preferences. Tumour boards at major centres review all cases to ensure comprehensive, evidence-based care.

- Persistent abdominal discomfort (cramps, gas, bloating, pain)
- Feeling that bowel does not empty completely
- Unexplained weight loss and fatigue
- Anaemia-related symptoms (weakness, shortness of breath)
Screening Guidelines
Colonoscopy: Adults aged 45-50+ years without symptoms; every 10 years if normal; sooner if positive screening tests
Many cancers are detected at earlier stages through regular screening in asymptomatic individuals at risk. Speak with your healthcare provider about recommended screening protocols based on your age, family history, and risk factors.
