Niki,
I have seen this
Niki,
I have seen this article as well and followed some of the study. I pray every day that they will attempt to cross these study results over into other types of cancer. We are currently in th process of doing whatever we can to lengthen my husband's life hoping that a breakthrough like this one will be released for EC. Hope, it's all we've got right now!!

Niki,
This was on the Early Show on NBC AND the Today show TODAY!! Too cool. Gene typing and all this research WILL pay off sooner or later!
Thanks for sharing that for those who have not seen it. I think it will be ALL over the press by later this week!
Thanks for letting me know I am going to go search youtube and see if it is out there yet.

Hey Whitney,
I plan on talking to our oncologist about this study on the 27th at Jeff's post op appointment. I too am curious if he thinks they will cross this study to EC, I think it all depends on whether there is a protein they can attack. The article did mention mesothelioma and pancreatic cancer as two possible targets.
Have you and your husband looked into clinical trials?
