| combination chemotherapy | definition: chemotherapy with two or more anticancer drugs together to treat cancer. Using a combination of drugs has the advantage of killing off as many cancer cells as possible because cells that have built up resistance to one drug will be sensitive to another. It also impairs their ability to repair damage and build up drug resistance. This is the most effective treatment for most cancers.

| quimioterapia combinada | definition: quimioterapia que consiste en la utilización de dos o más fármacos antineoplásicos simultáneamente. La ventaja de la combinación es que destruye mucho más células cancerosas ya que células que han desarrollado una resistencia a un fármaco serán afectadas por otro. También evita que las células reparen el daño y desarrollen resistencia a los fármacos. Es el tratamiento más eficaz para la mayoría de los cánceres.
