Revlimid and Procrit

Hi Cheri,
I found this study at clin trials gov.
http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/N...in+Alfa&rank=1 Is it the same study?

It look interesting but I don't like that they don't inform about the Revlimid dose. Is it 5 or 10 mg/day? Then I think that Revlimid should be combined with Dexamethasone or a similar drug - all patients with the diseases Myelofibrosis and Myeloma now get that combination because Revlimid and Dexamethasone increases HGB in different ways.

I feel that MDS patients not always get the best treatment. This study was designed 2009 and at that time they perhaps didn't know how important Dexamethasone is for best response rate.
Kind regards
Birgitta-A
