Adjuvant Therapy Articles

Adjuvant therapy is often used after primary treatments, such as surgery, to decrease the chance that your cancer will come back. Even if his surgery was successful in removing all visible cancer, there are sometimes microscopic remains of cancer that are undetectable by current methods. Adjuvant therapy administered before the main treatment is called neoadjuvant therapy. This type of adjuvant therapy can also decrease the chance that the cancer will come back, and is often used to make primary treatment, such as an operation or radiation treatment, easier or more effective. Adjuvant or neoadjuvant therapy can cause significant side effects, and these treatments do not benefit everyone. Chemotherapy. Chemotherapy uses drugs to kill cancer cells throughout the body. Hormone therapy. For hormone-sensitive cancers, certain treatments can stop the production of hormones in your body or block the effect of hormones. Radiotherapy. Radiation therapy uses high-powered energy rays, such as X-rays or protons, to destroy cancer cells. It can be administered internally or externally.
