How To Treat Stage 4 Of Cancer?

Please, a very good male friend who is a functioning alcoholic has been diagnosed with very aggressive stage 4 cancer. This is his second week of radiation and chemo once a week. In 8 weeks from a little lump side of neck is now a baseball and a half. What is his survival rate. Please be honest.
