Neoadjuvant therapy (tumor burden) - Correct Answer-Chemo BEFORE
primary treatment (common in breast and colon)
Adjuvant therapy - Correct Answer-Chemo AFTER primary treatment
(common in solid tumor)
Bone Marrow - Correct Answer-soft, sponge-like tissue in center of most
bones, produce WBC, RBC, and platelets.
Myelosuppression - Correct Answer-bone marrow activity is decreased,
causing less RBC, WBC and Platelets.
Myeloablation - Correct Answer-severe myelosuppression

,Induction phase - Correct Answer-initial phase, typically in hospital,
intended myelosuppression
Consolidation phase (intensification/postremission therapy) - Correct
Answer-after successful induction, kills cancer cells left in body (ex
radiation, stem cell transplant)
Synergy - Correct Answer-when one chemo drug helps another work better
at the same time
Complete response - Correct Answer-no identifiable cancer present for at
least one month or longer
Partial response - Correct Answer-Measurable tumor reduced by 50% for
at least one month with no new tumors
Stable disease - Correct Answer-Tumor size reduced by less than 50% or
less than 25% increase in growth
Progressive disease - Correct Answer-tumor growth more than 25% or new
cancer

, What are the phases of the cell cycle? - Correct Answer--G1 phase
-S phase
-G2 phase
-M phase
What happens in G1 phase? - Correct Answer-The cell increases in size
and prepares to replicate its DNA.
What do chemo drugs do to target S phase? - Correct Answer-Prevent cell
from making DNA and/or RNA (replicating)
(ex: antifolates (methotrexate), antipyrimidines (5-fu), antipurines
(hydroxyurea))
What do chemo drugs do to target G2 phase? - Correct Answer-Cells
prepare to divide, chemo drugs stop development of elements needed for
cell division
(ex: topoisomerase I and II inhibitors, bleomycin)
What do chemo drugs do to target M phase? - Correct Answer-Cells divide,
drugs prevent cell division, including metaphase arrest or microtubular
disorganization
(ex: plant alkaloids and taxanes)
