hmmmmm, thalidomide is the father of a whole new class of drugs called anti

angio-genesis. Endiostatin is the only one that has stuck in my mind, but

you could find info on the others on the web as well. I found an article

that Endiostatin was going into trial at Dana Faber?? is that the name???

This past spring, 2000!! These tests are for prostate cancer. The angio

inhibitors work by not allowing your body to form new blood vessels. This

is only done in your body under 3 circumstances: pregnancy(ie: the

horrendous birth defects caused by thalidomide in the 50's), wound healing,

and tumor formation. Endiostaten is a protein, so I was really interested

in that:) on my Merlin search:) I don't have a link anymore, but if you put

anti angio-genesis in your browser a lot of info would come up.

Lori, I looked at Endostatin a while ago and thought it looked like it had a

possible application. There was something about it that made it stick out

from the others for Nf2.......beats me, i can't remember . It was the Dana

Ferber institute or clinic, I think. But I concluded that anti-angiogenesis

drugs were only appropriate for adults, who have stopped growing.
