Hi Margaret,

I'm a CRA with a midwest CRO - so very familiar with what you do.

I'm not sure of the trial you are referring to a MD Anderson - but I know I posted and a couple others posted about a prevention trial that used erlotinib. It's probably not the same as what you were looking for though as it was mostly to prevent a cancer from coming back or for those at high risk of development. I had stage II and surgery only. I cannot comment on the taste issues you are seaking answers to.

I hope you find all the answers you need here. People are generally very friendly and helpful.
