My dad was diagnosed with Stage 4 colon cancer with mets to the liver. He has been on a couple different drugs...I know there is Avastin, Oxaplatin(Eloxatin), Erbitux(which I was told is not a chemo drug but used to help shrink tumors),
5-FU(Zeloda, Xeloda pill which equals the infusion form of 5-FU.
Do I have this much correct? What other drugs are there that I do not have listed?
Thanks for helping me understand this.
