Salvage therapy, also known as rescue therapy, is a form of therapy given after an ailment does not respond to standard therapy.[1] The most common diseases that require salvage therapy are HIV and various cancers. The term is not clearly defined; it is used both to mean a second attempt and a final attempt.[2] Salvage therapy drugs or drug combinations have, in general, much more severe side effects than the standard line of therapy. This is often true of a drug of last resort.
