Went to Maryland yesterday with great results.I am accepted in the trial as long as they can get a needle biopsy.The trial is the new antiobiotics thats been killing cancer.It will be a pill in the morning and one in evening.The trial starts at the end of june and I have to do a 4 week wash out.so next step will be a needle biopsy and I'll be good to go.Anxious and ready to start.

@pendesk8 , congrats on your hopeful news! Do you have the name, NCT number, or drug description for that trial? Was it also dependent on your specific mutation? (I don't recall clearly, but did you have ATM?)

pendesk, do you mind if I ask whether you mean Kimmel Center at U of MD? I live in Maryland, which is why I'm asking.

I'm at the almost-start of my journey -- 6 chemo infusions, some ambiguity about whether my cancer has metastasized, waiting for news next week about what comes next (radiation, or rad. + surgery, or surgery) -- and I've glanced at a list of clinical trials, just in case. So that's why I'm asking for a little more info about any relevant names (facility, the trial, the physician conducting it), if you're comfortable sharing it.

I wish you good results! Take care.
