Greg,
Thank you so much for your response! I am hoping that this works for my mom because so far Vidaza and Dacogen have done nothing and her blast counts are up to 13% now. She is now both red blood cell and platelet transfusion dependant, receiving 2 units of RBC every 2 weeks and platelets are needed. Another factor is her lymphoma might be back and I don't know if they will let her in the study if it is. I don't know what alteratives are left at this point. Editing to add my mother is 69 years old.
