cisplatin or not cisplatin?

Hi everybody:

My wife is having Vinorelbine injections for her lung spots, and she is taking Tykerb since last May.
One another oncologist suggests we should have cisplatin combo with the Vinorelbine injection.
Would it be too strong for my wife? Is that combo work ok with Tykerb?
Any experience? Any idea?
Thanks for any reply!
