Hello All,
Bob, congratulations to you!!! You give us all hope.
I am new to the group, so I forgive me for asking, but
I presume that BMS is a new drug that they are trying?
Gloria, my prayers and best wishes are with you as you
recover from your BMT.
As for me, I just returned from MD Anderson in
Houston, where I met with Dr. Cortes. He enrolled me
in a study using a high dose (800mg/day) of Gleevec,
and after 6 months, one half of the program
participants will receive peg-Interferon and Lukeine.
I was randomly assigned to that arm of the study.
The theory is that those who receive the interferon
and lukeine will do even better than those on Gleevec
alone.
I have not yet read much about Interferon, as I
understood Gleevec to be the standard treatment now,
so can anyone give me a few pointers on what to
expect? Am I correct in thinking that Interferon may
have some unpleasant side effects?
Thanks,
Libby
