Neoadjuvant therapy is utilized for several reasons:
- Tumor Reduction: Shrinking a tumor before surgery can make it easier to remove and increase the chances of successful surgery. - Assessing Treatment Response: It allows doctors to see how the cancer responds to treatment, providing valuable information for postoperative therapy. - Preservation of Organs: It can help in preserving important structures and organs, thus maintaining the patientâs quality of life. - Eliminating Micrometastases: It aims to eradicate small clusters of cancer cells that have spread but are not yet detectable.
