Dacogen

Hi Patti,
As far as I understand most doctors will continue treatment with Vidaza and Dacogen as long as the patient is responding. I am not sure if this really is the best treatment because when these drugs stop to work the patient has to very soon start another treatment because the counts will decrease fast.

Here is an abstract about Dacogen (decitabine). As you can see 91.4% of the patients demonstrated some kind of improvement by cycle 2 in this study:
