Peachy, "Second - Azacidine (Vidaza) and letolinimide (Revlimid) with the hope to get blasts down to "remission" level. If accepted, he will have vidaza shots for a week followed by 21 days of Revlimid (50mg), which is a really high dose. While this combination is not easy to tolerate early signs show it could have up to a 50% response."
Again it is an individual situation for sure, but when they added Revlimid to my Vidaza I felt zero side effects. Also, this was done for me without being part of a study/trial. My doctor just did it. The studies have supported this use.
