FOLFOX differences
Why is there a FOLFOX6 and FOLFOX7? When and why is one used over the other? I am really curious about this. I am on FOLFOX6 for my stage IIIC.

Re: FOLFOX differences
Mostly they differ in the timing and dosage of the components that make up the drug combination. Oncologists select the protocol based on their experiences more than anything else I think. Personal preference maybe. By and large I don't think there is much difference clinically in the outcomes depending on which protocol is used. Lot of experimentation with this drug combination in Oncology practice. Seems its more likely they add bevacizumab now a days to one of these FOLFOX protocols which does seem to make a difference to many.
Have a look at the following about FOLFOX:
