Sometimes, chemotherapy is used as the only cancer treatment. But more often, you will get chemotherapy along with surgery, radiation therapy, or biological therapy. Chemotherapy can:

• Make a tumor smaller before surgery or radiation therapy. This is called neo-adjuvant chemotherapy.
  
  
• Destroy cancer cells that may remain after surgery or radiation therapy. This is called adjuvant chemotherapy.
  
  
• Help radiation therapy and biological therapy work better.
  
  
• Destroy cancer cells that have come back (recurrent cancer) or spread to other parts of your body (metastatic cancer).
