My friend is going for clinical trial number two. The doctor said it is not uncommon to go from one trial to another. I would love to know anyone's experience out there with this. Has anyone been on more that one? How long were you on it/them? Thanks so much. Kathryn

    Kathryn,

    My opinion is that the time is precious and while your friend is tring this new trial then another one and on and on - the time goes by and tumors are growing. Why not to try what has already been tried long ago and known to be working? That is why they are called "trial" because the result is unknown. But there are already known ways, I would have him do that.

    Good luck to you with whatever you decide.

    Best wishes, Eleonora
