If you are doing a search for posts on that drug, Gary mistyped its name. The correct spelling is amifostine (it's marketed as Ethyol). Almost 190 posts mention amifostine and almost 90 Ethyol.

April 2006: Husband dx by dentist with leukoplakia on tongue. Oral surgeon's biopsy 4/28/06: Moderate dysplasia; pathology report warned of possible "skip effect." ENT's excisional biopsy (got it all) 5/31/06: SCC in situ/small bit superficially invasive. Early detection saves lives.
