The personalized chemo testing nut 'tis me. Initially my Dad's MO, as well as every MO we've spoken with, dismissed this type of testing as unnecessary, not proven, etc. You do NEED your MO to at least consider the findings of this type of testing, and we were pleasantly surprised to learn that he changed his mind and his tumor sample is being reviewed as of now.

In reality, we do not anticipate a miracle and suspect the results will recommend similar Rx to what's on his agenda now. But I HAD TO LOOK FURTHER.

My Dad's mets sound similar to Matts. He is currently on this trial http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01044433 and as of now his mets have shrunk. To be clear, his MO is pleased but all MOs still confirm this is palliative care.
