This is one of the most exciting things I have heard about in a long while. I have been waiting for p53 to be focused on (I have Li-Fraumeni Syndrome) and this kind of research is hopefully something that will hopefully give some good results. I am trying to get on this study before it even opens. I will keep you all updated. Julie

I agree this sounds really promising
Please keep us informed if you are able to get on the trial-I wish you really good luck.
They have enrolled some patients already by the sound of things so you may hear something positive soon
I have never heard of your syndrome so I assume it is rare.Does it affect your immune response??
Cheers
