I can comment on SBRT. My local doctors wanted to halt chemo to do SBRT. My consulting physician( a high volume Pcan oncologist, told me do not stop systemic treatment when doing SBRT. Proton or SBRT are very directed, precise treatment to attack a tumor and not harm the tissue surrounding it. Thus hopefully leaving you available for further radiation or surgery if needed later.

Do you feel SBRT is better than conventional radiotion after 12 Folfirinox Chemo treatments?
