Ask oncologist: No idea what your cancer is. Ask your doc, and your oncologist (cancer specialist).

Options vary: With cancer type: from "watchful waiting" in many prostate cancer to radical surgery alone. Some cancers are cured with chemo or XRT alone, many now are treated with combinations. Serving comfort needs is another goal. Harnessing the immune system to help is a future direction.
