Care Plans or Protocols

I too would love to learn more about protocols. I was off chemo for two months for a minor surgery. Scans in January indicated I was NED. The thought was to continue treatment until the next scans; Folfuri every two weeks (pump).
I’m wondering if it could be as effective spreading it out to every 3 weeks (instead of 2) or lowering the dosage.
Is there research or specialists that have suggested this would be as effective?
My Signatera was 0 and past 3 CA19-9 have been in 20s.

Bravo, Maryanne!
My chemos, when I was on it, were decreased to 60% of their potency. The lowest frequency I know is every 2 weeks. That's all I personally know.
