As per my understanding the patient is suffering from pancreatic cancer and now it has metastasized to liver and you want to know about the treatment. It seems the patient id suffering from stage 4 pancreatic cancer. Any cancer stage 4 does not have a good prognosis.
Treatment of cancer to a great extent depends on type of cancer, stage of Cancer, location of the cancer, general condition of patient, associated comorbidities and weighing benefits over risk. So considering these factors doctor will advise the treatment. Consult oncologists. Hope our answer helps you.

As per my understanding, pancreatic and liver cancer at stage 3 level has poor prognosis. This patient will need multidisciplinary approach. Palliative care with counseling is of utmost importance. Please consult an oncologist for help. Immunotherapy, targeted drug therapy is also considered nowadays. But it all depends on patient's general condition. Refer this page to find specialists who will treat the patient - Best Oncologist In India. Hope our answer helps you.

Hello Issac, you have posed a very important question about what will be services to help a patient who is not native to India.
There are two types of hospitals:
- Government Hospitals: They will provide free/ affordable treatment but WILL NOT provided you with any other services which you are expecting.
- Private Hospitals: They will provide good quality treatment which would cost a bit. These hospitals cater to the needs of International patients and WILL provide the following services:
- Medical Visa Assistance
- Airport Pick Up/Drop
- Accommodation
- Currency Exchange
- SIM Card
- Language Translators
You can find hospitals on our page - Liver Cancer Treatment Hospitals in India.
