Hello,

Typically they use a doublet or triplet of Carboplatin/Taxol/ and Avastin in first line treatment of NSCLC.

I don't know anything about pain control as that was not an issue for us.

The time? No one can really say because it depends on a lot of variables. Please give us a little more information so we can help you better.

Take care.
PBJ
