Trials....

Hi folks,
Chemo is now on hold for this week. I have to have another blood test at Peter Mac on Wed 20/7 am to check further for Trial compatibility; there may be an issue with this. Therefore, I can't start Cycle 1 on Wednesday now. I will still get results on Wednesday 20/7 from all tests I did over the past week which will be helpful. Depending on how the new blood tests go,I may still go ahead with the Clinical Trial as soon as final approval is granted. I was psyching myself up for a huge week of chemo so it is a bit weird trying to readjust....

NB: The Picasso III Study is a random double-blind study in patients with front-line metastatic soft tissue sarcoma which uses the standard treatment in Australia for LMS:  DOXORUBICIN and pairs it with a trial drug PALIFOSFAMIDE-TRIS.

If I don't qualify for this trial, I will still be receiving the standard chemotherapy drug Doxorubicin (unless there are further issues of concern from the tests done last week.)
Take care,
Georgia
