They do Fractunated Dose Chemotherapy at Cancer Treatment Centers of America. Patients are given their chemo over several days rather then several hours. I did not have my chemo treatment there but opted to have treatment at a local provider on a weekly schedule rather then every three weeks. I'm given a smaller dose weekly rather then the usual larger dose every three weeks. I'm tolerating the treatment well, my CA15-3 tumor marker was 34.5 after the second round of tx's, and my tumor has shrunk to 25% of the origional size after the 4th round of tx's.
