My dad is getting transfused with red cells every 6weeks which is really hampering his quality of life. Unfortunately we have not found any good treatment available that can help his hgb counts improve. Rest of his counts have remained stable and he his able to lead his normal life untill it gets to a point where he needs to get transfused. He lives in India and we do not have many clinical trials available there. What is confusing to me right now are couple of questions:

1. Should he try clinical trials at this stage? If yes, being an indian citizen is there a possibility for him to enroll in any of the clinical trials in US ?
2. Is there any low toxic treatment available to improve his hgb?
