Clinical trial

Good morning all.

My husband has recently finished his 4th chemo infusion and, depending on the results of his scan next week, has been offered a place on the EORTC trial using Pazopanib versus placebo.

Apparently this drug is now being used on kidney cancer patients and they are trialling it for lung cancer ones.

I wonder whether anyone has any experience of this trial.

Many thanks and much love to you all.

Hi Sandra

Never had to be on a clinical trial, so can't help you there. So my advice would be the same as usual in these circumstances - maybe boring, but best - have a chat with your hubby's CNS. Best wishes,

Sorry I can't help you on this question but I just want to wish your husband luck and will be thinking of him.

Wishing you both a great Christmas.
