The term chemotherapy was originally coined to refer to the use of chemicals to treat disease [1]. It has now become synonymous with the use of powerful chemical drugs to treat cancer and forms part of the standard of care in conventional oncology. The development of chemotherapy can be traced back to World War II, when mustard gas, a chemical weapon, was explored for its potential therapeutic application against cancer [2]. Nowadays, there are hundreds of different types of chemotherapeutic agents.
