This is considered an "adverse event", of course, but it could well be completely incidental. There has neither been resolution nor progression of the hemorrhage since it was first identified back in December '08.Brian E.

My mother tells me that she thinks that he received one infusion, and that he was dropped from the study after identification of a small cerebral bleed on MRI. But there may have been some edema as well. I'm not sure. I believe he was in the Phase II study. I did not appreciate any benefit from the treatment based on my daily phone conversations with him.Brian E.

Did you see any benefit from the treatment?<br /><br />Thanks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
