My sister has been pulled off the Lapitinib trial. She is having serious seizures and progression on the brain. Unfortunately she only had 10 days of the medication before she was off for a couple of days to get her potassium levels up. Her levels are up, but MRI today showed progression...she's been in hospital since Saturday. Doctors have requested meeting with family tomorrow. They are giving her 2 months to live...we are desparately trying to get the trial drug on compassionate grounds. We know that it may not work for her, but we want her to have hope...that's the least we can give her. I'm so sad...and mad, but I will pray. Please send your prayers to Carole and her family.
Thank you so much.
