I'm trying to get into the trial. Do you mind telling me where you're going to get this treatment

I am going to UCLA but Dr. Fabio Almeida in Arizona is also offering the trial.

When I spoke with UCLA The trial is randomized so some men will get the Lutetium 177 while others will continue standard treatments.

I am deciding this week between UCLA and Heidelberg in Germany. Looks very promising.

Check out excel diagnostics in Houston. Susan cork is the person you will talk to. Phase 2 has one more month. It's two dose levels. Phase 3 is get it or not. My first dose is Tuesday.

My understanding is that there is no cost to the patient for the Phase III trial. This is in contrast to the Phase II trial. I had hoped to get my dad into the Phase III trial, but he has just received his first dose of Lu177 in India (where he lives) and apparently that precludes him from joining the Phase III trial.
