A member asked:
Does chemotherapy work for some people.. but not for others?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, that is correct: Chemo does not always benefit everyone. Some tumors are sensitive to chemo, others(of the same type) can be quite resistant. So we can not guarantee that chemo will prove useful without actually giving it a try.
