T he idea underpinning adjuvant chemotherapy is that the chemotherapy drugs are
more effective after the main tumor has been removed and any remaining cancer is
in small amounts (microscopic metastases).
For example, in a case of colon cancer, the primary tumor would first be resected
(removed) from the colon. Then the adjuvant chemotherapy would be carried out. The
chemotherapy drugs might be given intravenously and instilled directly into the
abdomen.
