My chemo has stopped working, my tumors are inoperable and the oncologist said the only option I have left is the recently approved Lonsurf. But if I am reading this FDA report correctly, people on Lonsurf only lived 1-2 months longer than those on the placebo. I'm not sure 1-2 months is worth the chemo side effects. Has anybody tried Lonsurf? What do you think?
"Patients treated with Lonsurf lived an average of 7.1 months compared to 5.3 months for those treated with placebo. On average, the time to disease progression was two months for patients on Lonsurf compared to 1.7 months for patients receiving placebo" - FDA
