I believe they tested my genetics to see if I was a candidate for targeted chemo therapy and I wasn’t, but I do know someone that did very well with targeted chemo.

@jamineibs - Good morning. With multifocal adenocarcinoma surgery or targeted radiation - SBRT is the protocol. Chemo is usually preserved as life-extending after all other options have been used. It's the nature of our beast. Perhaps there will come a time when there is a test that can tell which lesions are likely to become cancerous and which are not.

We have some crazy cancer, right?
