Chemo is never the primary treatment for oral cancer. It would be surgery or radiation. Even then chemo is an adjunt to radiation most of the time. There is a section of the main site that has different treatment protocols based on staging. Once you have that, you can reveiw that NCCN PDF and see what the recomendations would be, still it wil be up to your doctors at the center and that centers protocols as to how this goes. That is why it is so important to make the right choice in picking your cancer treatment facility.
