Hello dear ones. Still happy to be posting in this forum. Dad is rounding year two of metastatic treatment and has just completed the cap/lap trial. Not only did he participate for 6 months longer than most on cap/lap, he is doing very well. He has two new small spots, one nuked with rads this week and the other just visible in a lymph, but its under control. QOL is also very good, and we are very thankful.

Now starts another (more aggressive) trial aimed at stunting tumor spread, ACE-041 http://clinicaltrials.gov/show/NCT01458392 . I've been reading about side effects but this trial is not well validated, does anyone know of it or can you direct me to experts that do? TIA!
