Abstract: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy refers to systemic chemotherapy given to patients before local treatment
(surgery or radiotherapy). Scholars from both China and abroad have explored the modality therapy for neoadjuvant
chemotherapy combined with surgery or radiotherapy on cervical cancer over the last two decades and they have learned certain
experiences in this area. But the status of this therapy is not clear yet and there is no consensus on how to choose its
appropriate chemotherapy protocol. The latest therapeutic progress of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, the effect of various
regimens, and their development trends now are being reviewed.

Key words: Cervical cancer, Neoadjuvant chemotherapy, Chemotherapy regimen
