Guest guest Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 Carol, I haven't heard anything. I have to be on a research database later this week for work; I can check and see if there are any peer reviewed journal articles that I can access. I believe the manufacturer is due to deliver a longitudinal study of reported side effects some time in the spring.

Guest guest Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 I went ahead and did a search on the database I have access to and did not turn up any journal articles on omalizumab and cancer. I found a fair amount of studies supporting its " safety and tolerability. " Of course, it's only been available for 7 years, and their may be studies in progress that have yet to be published.

Guest guest Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 Thanks, Doug, I appreciate the information. I remember being told when I first started the shots that there was a slightly greater risk of cancer but that it hadn't been around long enough to really know. I just wondered if there was any newer information. I appreciate your reply.
