Very interesting to hear what Dr Sharman considers useful tests which starts at 2:40. Seems Zap-70 has had its day.
Thanks Brian. It's frustrating hearing about these new markers while there is no testing for them at present. I asked my consultant if I was likely to get tested for BIRC3 or SF3B1 while on the RESONATE2 Imbruvica study but it seems there are no plans to.
I tend to think that if BIRC3 is as bad as p17/p53, I would know it by now if I had it after nearly 4 years with the 11q.

It is frustrating, but may be moot with the new meds. Still unclear.
Sorry to hear about the loss of your 2 friends.
