Kindly let me know why cancer is difficult to cure. It is also a challenge because cancer cells can spread to other parts of the body through a process called metastasis. Furthermore, cancer cells can develop resistance to treatments such as chemotherapy and targeted therapies. Cancer cells can evade the body›s immune system, allowing them to survive and proliferate. Early detection significantly improves the chances of successful treatment, but screening methods are not available for all types of cancer.
