Chemotherapy is a medical treatment that uses chemical substances, typically cytotoxic or targeted drugs, to treat cancer by destroying or slowing the growth of malignant cells. It is often administered systemically or regionally and may be given in cycles, sometimes alongside other therapies such as surgery or radiation. The term can refer to the drugs themselves or the overall treatment course.
