    We saw the Dr. on Fri. and he said the counts looked OK to start. He said it didn’t matter that his nuetrophil was .3. His overall WBC was a 1.7(up a little from Weds). Thanks for the responses from all of you. Dad starts clinical trial tomorrow of Vidaza and PXD101.

    Hi Kristy,
    My Dad will be starting this trial of PXD101 and Vidaza next week. I really dont know much about any of the drugs since this is my Dad’s first round. I was hoping someone would be able to tell me how WELL they did on it. I know that he has a higher chance of responding to this than the 30% chance with only Vidaza. Everything I’ve read about it sounds hopeful.KLS
