Chemotherapy is a cancer treatment using anticancer drugs designed to kill or slow the growth of cancer cells that divide rapidly in the body. The method used is to study mathematical model of cervical cancer with radiotherapy and radiotherapy treatment followed by chemotherapy. The results of this study are for the early stages of cervical cancer with radiotherapy is quite effective, while for the late stages of radiotherapy and chemotherapy is less effective. Therefore, the need for other treatments for end-stage cervical cancer in addition to radiotherapy and chemotherapy.
