[Rationalization of adjuvant chemotherapy by induction chemotherapy].
Bulletin du cancer, 1985An induction chemotherapy, before any local treatment, allows to precise the chemosensitivity of the primary tumor.

INDUCTION CHEMOTHERAPY IN HEAD AND NECK CANCER
Hematology/Oncology Clinics of North America, 1999Induction chemotherapy can produce response rates of 60% to 90%, which are complete in 20% to 50% of previously untreated patients with squamous cell head and neck cancer. It was hoped that this dramatic chemotherapy-induced tumor shrinkage would result in more successful locoregional treatment and prove useful in disease management.

Induction Systemic Chemotherapy for Breast Cancer
2011Induction chemotherapy, also known as primary or neoadjuvant chemotherapy, for breast cancer is indicated in locally advanced breast cancer (LABC) and patients with stage II-III disease, in order to downstage the tumour burden and ensure low risk of appropriate breast conservation.
