Centriole, can you be a bit more specific? What would you like to know about the trials taking place at Princess Margaret Hospital (PMH)? Are you interested in a specific trial? Do you want to know which trial might be best for you? Do you want to know how to find trials? It is not an easy process to negotiate and I have found that the institution does not provide enough information in order to make a fully informed decision. I have some information and would be happy to provide it but it would help to have a bit more guidance. The trials of course have their own requirements and exclusions including if you are chemo sensitive or resistant as well as other factors such as what mutations your tumours might carry (there is a long list of these now for specific trials) . I would also ask if you are attending any support groups in Toronto?
