Updates on Abiraterone Trial

[Guest guest]

Anyone hear a recent update on the Phase III Abiraterone trial that is supposed to open to post-Chemo advanced PCa patients? http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01217697?term=abiraterone+and+prostate+cancer & recr=Open & rank=4

I'm going to have to make a change in treatments in the next few weeks as it appears DES is no longer working.We are investigating Provenge, Abiraterone Phase II and the Abiraterone Phase III above.

You probably won't get any more info, but they have an email address:

Here is a list of treatment trials from the National Cancer Institute

search engine for hormone refractory PCa. The same trials are listed at

both NCI and ClinicalTrials.gov - they exchange information with each other,

but the NCI search mechanism is different, maybe better. There are some

other Abiraterone related trials, though the one you found looks most

interesting because it's Phase III.

Best of luck.

Crikey, .

Sorry to hear your bad news on DES. I wish you much success on the next leg of

the relay. Hopefully, it will all spread out far enough to include us all in

the cure which has yet to be uncovered.

Be strong--you've got more disc golf in your future.
