good summary here - remember every new treatment was first available only in a clinical trial! https://news.cancerconnect.com/newly-diagnosed/... D

I was in two clinical trials at Sloan Kettering NY
They did not help and because of severe side effects Doctor stopped after several weeks. I ended up gettin a bone marrow transplant which was successful. I had lymphoma cancer.

You know life is a risk and if you have the opportunity for a trial, I would definitely do it. Life will never be as it was, but if you can feel better? I would do it.

I was in two clinical trials at Sloan Kettering in New York. I got very sick from both and ended up with a bone marrow transplant. Although the trials did not help me, I would do it again. It can potentially help other and it is a way to find a cure.
