If chemotherapy fails for metastic colon cancer what option is there ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
What do you mean?: my first question is what do you mean chemotherapy fail. what kind of symptoms the patient has to indicate failure. and to answer your question, if surgery is no longer an option to control the metastases. then it is wait and see.
