Suggest Alternative Treatment For Advanced Lung Cancer

Hi, Last June 2014, my father was diagnosed with SCLC (adv stage). After that WBRT and six cycle of etoposide+Cisplatin continued till Nov 2014. But it seems his tumors still growing in the lungs. Surprisingly still now he is stable and can able to his day to day activities normally. Now my specific question is what will be his possible treatment now or is there any naturopathy/ holistic way to approach?
