Folfox 2 wks vs. 3 wks

Postby klryder02 » Sat Mar 24, 2007 12:26 pm

Hello-

Has anyone found a website that gives any research on Folfox?

Two doctors visits ago, I asked the onc about any research that shows the benefit of Folfox every 2 weeks instead of 3 weeks.

He didn't answer my question, and just told me that at my age, we need to be more aggressive and that he wouldn't allow me to move to a 3 week schedule permanately (only for vacation and low blood counts).

I hate that I can't find any research about these types of things on my own..and I have to rely on someone else's background and knowledge.

Anyway, just wanted to know if you guys knew of anything!
29, stage IV, diagnosed Oct. 2006, currently on Oxaliplatin, 5-FU, and Vectibix.
