<unk> , also known as adjunct<unk> , adjuvant care, or augmentation<unk> , is a<unk>  that is given in addition to the primary or initial<unk>  to maximize its effectiveness. The surgeries and complex treatment regimens used in cancer<unk>  have led the term to be used mainly to describe adjuvant cancer treatments. An example of such<unk>  is the additional treatment usually given after surgery where all detectable disease has been removed, but where there remains a statistical risk of relapse due to the presence of undetected disease. If known disease is left behind following surgery, then further treatment is not technically adjuvant. An adjuvant used on its own specifically refers to an agent that improves the effect of a vaccine. Medications used to help primary medications are known as add-ons.
