Interferon/Pegasys

I posted this link earlier, has about 10 Presentations from the recent MPN Asia Conference

mpnasia.com/site/mypage.asp...

Too many to watch all of them but the third from the bottom, Panel Discussion with Dr Verstovsek, was excellent

If you are on Interferon/Peginteferon or thinking about starting, I’d strongly recommend you watch. The Panel is a bit biased, compromising of two the the great Inf bulls, but then they have the most experience of using Inf.

Mainly covers PV but also of interest to early stage MF.

Hi Paul,

Thanks for the link to the presentation.

As you mentioned the panel discussion was very interesting and very relevant to my situation as I will be starting on Pegasys tomorrow and from what they say it is clearly the right time for me to start on it.

I was also very encouraged with regard to their opinion about Ropeginterferon. I only hope it gets EMA marketing approval before Brexit so they don’t need to start the whole approval process again with whatever UK medicines agency is created after March 2019.

Regards

John
