Please advice if any one knows what would be the best option.Today the doctor adviced they will give full blast radiation. Options with radiation are either 3 cisplatin or 3 Panitumumab study drug. What our concern is that chemo is tested but this new drug is also very promising.
We have to make a decision by tomorrow morning as the Treatment is to start on Nov 1.

This is how it works;
standard fractionation radiotherapy once daily, 5 days a week, for 7 weeks. Patients receive cisplatin IV over 1 hour on days 1, 22, and 43 of radiotherapy.
accelerated fractionation radiotherapy once daily, 5 days a week, for 6 weeks. Patients receive panitumumab IV over 30-90 minutes 1 week prior to and on days 15 and 36 of radiotherapy.


Thanks !
