You’ve killed the weaker cancer cells and the ones that remained were the strong ones. It’s like antibiotic resistant bacteria, except instead of bacteria being selected by the antibiotic, it’s a population of cancer cells being selected by the treatment.

Also the next time it comes back your immune system is probably weaker as a result of the cancer treatment itself.
