Why some people are avoiding this is because it's "You are DEAD Already"! Because it's a drug that happens to be on the market for people with fewer months to days to live it not design to preserve your body! Think of it this way in 9/11 people had the option of dying in the melting flames or jumping out of the building! This a jumping out of the building drug! Even if the cancer patient slimly survives because of this drug they run the risk of other cancers because of DNA damage and a heart nucleared by this drug. THIS DRUG IS SO HARMFUL THAT SOME CANCER PATIENTS ARE GIVEN ONLY ONE DOSE IN CLINICAL TRIALS. Be warned those of you who have done cancer drugs before any damage that those drugs have done this drug will act as gasoline on that fire. Many like to worry about alt/ast,hemaglobin,immunesuppression labs!You will not have to worry about that because cancer doctors take good care of you so study doctors don't unless you are planning on being in a patient trial! IF YOU HATE YOUR COMPETITION THEN IS THE STUDY THAT YOU WILL PUSH THEM TO DO!
i do not know anything about this drug or this clinical trial.
however, i have many times at screenings asked the clinic doctors about horrific side effects listed on the consent forms. they always say, oh, the people who had those side effects were dying. but it seems that that begs the question. maybe the side effects hastened their dying. and maybe the drug researchers should be taking a LOT more care in testing even single doses on us, the healthy volunteers who are NOT dying.
i certainly don't know the answer. i am always low on money which is why i do clinical trials (and i am elderly and can't do many other jobs now). but i do think that the consent forms for dangerous experimental drugs do not go into enough detail and that the clinic doctors do not either. when i have asked, i have been given very vague answers, always followed by, "You don't have to volunteer if you don't want to." that frequently-heard phrase certainly is a great way to get out of having to explain things more thoroughly. just my opinion of course.
Respect, this is a good post and any other details you may wish to add would be great.
