I'm sure there are stats someplace as far as any treatment drop out rate, which is probably so variable due to the number of different type treatments and patients cancer, and seen a few numbers mentioned here and there, usually based on the study being read, but I have read facts as far as the negative effects of any unplanned stoppage or missed days of radiation in regards to reduction in overall survival to be around 1.7% for each day missed, usually after several days, which really can't be made up by tagging them on at the end. Stopping radiation can increase the speed of cancer proliferation. As many of my radiation oncologists said, once you start you can't stop unless it's planned or told to do so.
