Under the Prospect protocol, in certain circumstances surgery is performed following chemotherapy, without any radiation therapy. There is an abundance of information available on the internet.

@jaspithill1946 I had 5x immunotherapy to shrink a large tumor (no mets)followed by surgery…the treatments actually zapped the cancer—all 36 nodes clean, scans clean, Signatera 0…this can happen with chemo as well..it made for a safer surgery for sure..every case is different…many people just want the tumor out asap- i originally felt that way, but am grateful for what my docs did for me, the way they did it.
