Ask oncologist to review the papers on Saltikva. However, I agree with @gamaryanne that many are not willing to stray from the standard of care. Certainly my sister's oncologist at MSK was not (though he couldn't even send me a response directly), and the thoughtful oncologist at Mayo sent a response but is also not on board (sigh).
