Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Prostate Cancer / October 2007Phenoxodiol again
Several months ago, phenoxodiol (PXD) was not approved by the FDA due to flaws in trial design. A severe disappointment. No revenge-seeking investors sued the committee members, though, as is the case with Provenge. Now, Yale University has begun recruiting men for a follow-on trial of PXD. See: http://www.marshalledwardsinc.com/index04.cfm?section=04&status=1&id=219 I hope it will be approved by the time I need it. Regards, Steve J "Do not go where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail." -- Ralph Waldo Emerson Steve; I stopped reading the article when it says it "prolonges ..." I published the URL which claim 'cure' !!! CURE IS WHAT WE NEED NOT 2 MORE MONTHS OF REMISSION!!! Just as refresher ... one injection and the test subjects ALL healed and became further resistsant to any new cancer exposure! Probably cost 1$ to produce the caccine - that is before 'big goverment and big drug' gets hold of it ... http://www.hfxnews.ca/index.cfm?sid=70927&sc=270 khan On October 24, "Khan" responded to me: > ......I stopped reading the article when it says it "prolonges ..." I > published the URL which claim 'cure' !!! CURE IS WHAT WE NEED NOT 2 > MORE MONTHS OF REMISSION!!! Uh huh. Let's look at the facts. (1) After correcting the spelling, I find that nowhere in the article does the word "prolongs" occur. "Khan" used quotes; evidently incorrectly. (2) In the article, the following is found: "The (Phase II) trial was designed to end after 24 weeks of treatment, but was extended to 90 weeks because of the unexpected prolongation of time to progression in some patients." Hello? Is this bad? (3) The claimed "cure" involves *mice* not humans. There is a difference. Maybe it is a cure, maybe it is not. After a while, we will know. There is nothing to be gained by PCa patients in an attack upon a treatment that helps us to survive. And lastly, to repeat myself, I never never ever rely upon a press release or reporter's interpretation for medical information. That way lies disaster.
