dose delays are pretty common with vidaza and decitabine, but the impact of delays not due to marrow suppression doesn't have a lot of clinical data behind it as far as I have seen, so knowing the impact of a 3 week delay is very hard to predict. My personal preference would be to see if the office you are working with had any partner clinics that you could work with for the second cycle to prevent further delay, but I am not a doctor, nor am I an expert on Vidaza, but my preference is to work from the known rather than the unknown when it makes sense.
