Dr. Scholz put it this way. Chemo represents another path to deal with the cancer cells, by disrupting it's DNA etc. Intuitively, it should enhance the cure rate. So perhaps it will reduce that 10%? Is it worth it? Perhaps that is a matter for the patient and his medical team.
Dont mind me. I am just another layman trying to make some sense of the whole thing.
