Best Answer: Chemotherapy is basically targeting cancer cells to inhibit growth or for complete destruction, but healthy cells are also affected this way. Immunotherapy is basically strengthening the immune system to fight against infection. In relation to oncolgy, oncology patients are prone to infection (due to limited number of WBCs which fight off infections) and so they are given a boost for their immune system. Most oncology patients do not die from cancer itself but from acquired infection due to the body's inability to protect against it.
In many cases, chemotherapy medicines are given in combination, which means you get two or three different medicines at the same time. These combinations are known as chemotherapy regimens. In early stage breast cancer, standard chemotherapy regimens lower the risk of the cancer coming back. In advanced breast cancer, chemotherapy regimens make the cancer shrink or disappear in about 30-60% of people treated. Keep in mind that every cancer responds differently to chemotherapy. Standard chemotherapy regimens include: 1  AT: Adriamycin and Taxotere. 2  AC Â± T: Adriamycin and Cytoxan, with or without Taxol or Taxotere. 3  CMF: Cytoxan, methotrexate, and fluorouracil. 4  CEF: Cytoxan, Ellence, and fluorouracil. 5  FAC: fluorouracil, Adriamycin, and Cytoxan. 6  CAF: Cytoxan, Adriamycin, and fluorouracil.
