Hi Greg,
I don't think you should take cyclosporine off the table. I've read many studies that associate the trisomy 8 mutation with a cyclosporine dependent response (and a good long term prognosis). If you still have the trisomy 8 mutation after Campath, perhaps cyclosporine is a legitimate strategy for you to try.
