Mcrc. chemo was toxic , are there options of what else can be done . liver and peritoneal metastases?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Chemo is best: With metastatic disease in the liver and peritoneum there really are not other options besides chemo. There are however many types of chemo, some less toxic than others. Your oncologist can give you the best options for treatment in this situation.
