Introduction

Chemotherapy is an established component of cancer treatment research and encompasses the investigation and clinical application of medicines that can interfere with the growth, division, or survival of cancer cells. Contemporary oncology research also examines how therapeutic approaches can be optimized through combination strategies, treatment sequencing, biomarker-informed approaches, and improved management of treatment-related effects. The National Cancer Institute describes chemotherapy as a cancer treatment that uses drugs to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. [3]
