If a tumor has spread beyond the liver or cannot be removed surgically, the next best treatment is chemotherapy. Many different chemotherapy drugs and combinations of drugs are available for treatment. The appropriate drug therapy depends on your specific type of cancer, the extent of your disease, and your physical condition. Your doctor (medical oncologist) will explain the chemotherapy options, the expected outcomes and the associated side effects.
