& the "safety" of the drugs:
Cetuximab:
An acne-like rash may occur. Depending on how severe this rash is, your doctor may delay your cetuximab treatment, lower your dose, treat the rash with antibiotics, or stop treatment with cetuximab to decrease this potentially serious side effect.
Tell your doctor right away if you have any serious side effects, including: mental/mood changes (such as confusion, depression), swelling of hands/feet/lower legs, signs of dehydration (such as unusual dry mouth/thirst, dizziness/lightheadedness), signs of serious infection (such as sore throat that doesn't go away, high fever, chills), signs of kidney problems (such as change in the amount of urine), decreased vision, fast/slow/irregular heartbeat, muscle spasms.
Rarely, very serious lung problems may occur. Get medical help right away if you develop: trouble breathing, chest pain.
A very serious allergic reaction to this drug is rare. However, get medical help right away if you notice any symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, including: rash, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, trouble breathing.
This is not a complete list of possible side effects. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.
________
Bevacizumab (Avastin):
can have serious side effects, including:
Bleeding problems:
Bevacizumab can increase the risk of bleeding, so you should tell your doctor immediately if you notice any signs.
Blood clots:
Bevacizumab can increase the risk of blood clots, which can lead to serious problems like heart attack, stroke, pulmonary embolism, and more.
Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES):
This is a brain condition that can be a side effect of bevacizumab. Symptoms include chest pain, severe headaches, fainting, seizures, drowsiness, confusion, and vision, speech, or walking problems.
High blood pressure:
Bevacizumab can cause high blood pressure, which can lead to headaches, dizziness, or blurred vision.
Bowel perforation or fistulas:
If you have a lot of cancer in your abdominal cavity and it responds to bevacizumab, it could leave a hole in your bowel. Symptoms of a hole in your stomach or intestine include abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, constipation, or fever. Symptoms of a fistula include skin irritation, discharge, swelling, redness, or blood in the stool around the anus.

Aren't "rare event" the things pharma always gets sued over? ( sarcasm because "rare events" seem to happen enough for class-actions )
These safety "comparisons" to LL, are golden ticket(s).
It's like Cytodyn found all of them.
Game Over.
