promacta trial

Thanks very much Sally and to your husband for informing us about your experience with the new trial. I had inquired about this trial which , I think, is also available at Moffitt as well as NIH. Right now, my platelets are hanging steady but it is good to know that this trial is open in case they crash. When I read the inclusion criteria for the trial I was under the impression that one had to have failed other standard therapy like Vidaza but it is good to know that that may not be the case. I hope that your husband has a good response without side effects to the drug. Tytd
