What Is Chemotherapy?
Chemotherapy is a systemic cancer treatment that uses powerful drugs to kill or slow the growth of cancer cells. Since it circulates through the bloodstream, it can target cancer cells throughout the body.
Chemotherapy may be used in different ways:
- As a primary treatment for certain cancers
- Before surgery to shrink tumors (neoadjuvant therapy)
- After surgery to eliminate remaining cancer cells (adjuvant therapy)
- Along with radiation therapy for better outcomes
- For advanced cancers to control symptoms and prolong survival
When Is Chemotherapy Required?
Chemotherapy is recommended based on the type, stage, and spread of cancer. Dr. Sachin Trivedi may advise chemotherapy if a patient has:
- Diagnosed cancers such as breast, lung, colon, ovarian, or blood cancers
- Tumors that need to be reduced before surgery
- Cancer that has spread to other parts of the body
- High risk of recurrence after surgery
- A need for symptom control in advanced cancer
Each patient undergoes a detailed evaluation, including imaging, biopsy, and staging, before starting treatment.
