Standard Therapy-What is It?

Have a conversation with your physician about "standard therapy".It is defined as a time-tested regimen consisting of a combination of medicines given in a particular sequence over a particular time period for a particular cancer that over the years has over the years yielded the best responses for a large heterogeneous group of patients. In order to have reached this status, a regimen has had to be created and tested over a period of time and the results have been observed for at least five years or more.
