Do you offer 3 or 6 cycles of chemotherapy? Would you ever observe?

I would offer 6 cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy for a clear cell cancer with intraoperative rupture. I would not observe a clear cell tumor. I would also want to know if this patient was completely staged because this would change the prognosis.
