Clinical Trials

Postby raym » Mon Jun 09, 2014 8:54 pm

Had a visit to Hopkins today to discuss clinical trials. I'm not on the list for an antibody trial, though I need to find out exactly which one. Hoping there's a good chance I'm a match for what they need, but only time will tell. Will post information as I learn more. Today was just a meet n greet with the doctor. First impression is I like the doctor, easy to talk to.

I will be watching your future posts with interest.

I keep asking my onc to keep me alive long enough to participate in immunotherapy trials. It appears the most promising avenue to a cure.
