Chemotherapy refers to a type of cancer treatment, which uses drugs to stop or slow the growth of cancer cells, and can be used to cure cancer, control cancer, or for palliative care. Chemotherapy may be used as the sole type of treatment, or it may be used in conjunction with surgery, radiotherapy, or hormonal therapies.
