Thumbs up Vidaza soon in EU

Hi all members from EU,
At last the European Medicines Agency (EMEA) has adoptes a positive oppinion of Vidaza ! Now the European Commission will have to approve the drug - it will take 2-3 months and then the different states have to allow Vidaza. We are four years after the US !!!

Kind regards

vidaza in EU

Hi Ruth,
Thank you for the kind words ! You know in Sweden we have been able to get Vidaza on license but only sc - soon we can get it iv too. I am still asymptomatic but when my counts get worse I will try Vidaza and perhaps one of the histone deacetylase inhibitors like Zolinza.
Kind regards
Birgitta-A
