How long will survive a 47 year old male with kidney cancer in stage 4 - now is in chemioterapie with SUTENT ?


How long will survive a 47 year old male with kidney cancer in stage 4 - now is in chemioterapie with SUTENT ?

My Mum was diagnosed with stage 4 kidney cancer in May this year. once it was discovered it has spread to the liver and lung it was an very aggressive cancer. It took 2 months to find the primary source by this time the tumors had growth over 75% Has the patients kidney cancer spread????? My Mum was EXTREMELY ill and they decided to do a course of sutent. Because Mums cancer was so aggressive and growing so fast it was pointless. The drug made her sicker than the cancer itself. She lost bowel and bladder control, slept all day, vomitted, couldnt walk etc. My Mum would ahve been better off just enjoying what time she had left. She died three weeks after starting sutent. (sept 7) Mum was only sick for 4 months. Contact me if you need more information i have lots!!
