Resistance To Votrient
UpdatedMy father has stage 3 kidney cancer which is spread on lungs and liver, he's on votrient for almost 7 months and it was working well, tumor shrank, and all the metastasis on lungs shrank almost 50% after 3 months of therapy. But now after 6 months of therapy they started to grow again. Are there any possibility that his organism developed immunity to votrient after 6 months? Is anyone familiar with possibility of that? We have Sutent as back up medicine but we first wanna check is votrient stoped working or is it because his imunity is lower than before because he had a flu last month for almost 3 weeks. Any experience would be helpful.
