A member asked:
My dad has pancreatic cancer that spread to his liver. chemo did not help. the cancer has spread more. how long can he live without further treatment?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Few months at best: Most pateints with metastatic pancreatic cnacer die within 6 months to 12 months. So given that he has liver metastases and already failed chemo, he may not live more than 1, 2 or 3 months. But it is not possible to predict it exactly.
