Telintra? MDS and neutropenia

Http://www.telik.com/pipe_telintra.html

This is all I can paste from my phone at the moment. It looks promising for people with neutropenia. Looks like it inhibits tumor growth something that is of risk in long term treatment of neupogen. I don't know how far they are with this. I have seen a patient suffering from severe neutropenia and not responding to neupogen I believe. Once she was placed on this med her neutrophils increased to normal and good thing is these are tablets.

Is Telintra another form of chemotherapy like Vidaza and Revlimid?

There have been some studies with Telintra. Here is one.

Telintra response has some predictable markers per the study noted above.

Hope this helps.
