Hey sorry if you think this is spam, But certainly this is a major
find on mesothelioma.
I will post article for you sir. If you feel this is not important
you should really read the facts before you Leap.

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - The COX-2 inhibitor Celebrex, usually
prescribed for arthritis, has a marked effect on the asbestos-related
cancer malignant mesothelioma in lab and animal experiments, according
to a report from Italy.
Current treatments for mesothelioma have failed to alter its dismal
prognosis, the authors comment in the International Journal of Cancer,
but one selective COX-2 inhibitor has been shown to stop mesothelioma
cells growing in a lab dish.
This prompted Dr. Alfonso Catalano at the University of Marche in
Ancona and colleagues to assess the effects of Celebrex (a.k.a.
celecoxib) on experimental mesothelioma.
Celecoxib and similar compounds all inhibited proliferation of a
mesothelioma cell line without inhibiting the growth of a normal
mesothelial cell line, the researchers report. Celecoxib was the most
effective of the agents tested.
In mice implanted with mesothelioma, celecoxib treatment significantly
increased average survival from 45 days to 62 days, the researchers
note, and there were three long-term (more than 120 days) survivors
among the treated mice.
"These results provide the first evidence that celecoxib is effective
for the prevention and regression of malignant mesothelioma cells in
experimental models ... and strongly support ongoing clinical trials
in malignant mesothelioma patients," the team concludes.

Sure did Sinead !
this is what we/I see
From: "Sinead" <Sinead@invalid.anon>
Newsgroups: alt.support.cancer
As a quick doublecheck, I went to my browser and typed in invalid.anon (try
that and/or if you ever want to change the part after the @ in your munged
e-mail) and confirmed that it is NOT a legitimate domain name. It it was,
I'd either get a valid website or some message like "this domain is up for
sale". So those aren't wise to use, they may cause traffic on their servers
and cause them to go hunting you down. But yours appears okay to use (and
why I suggested it).
So if you ever want to allow someone to e-mail you, you'd have to post
something like
clacyfeline at cwlittergsy dot catnet (remove the cat stuff and fix the
obvious)
or
clacycorvette at cwbuickgsy dot net (take out the cars and fix the obvious )
;-)
