Hi Jennifer, I know you were ready to start the trial and I hope you can find another Neratinib trial that has the 2 year time limit.

Hugs, Alice

Bump you up Jennifer. Maybe some who are on this trial can give you some direction. Don't give up on getting this drug just yet.

Hugs Alice

Re: Help with Neratinib

I did hear that the requirements just changed last Monday (I got in 3 days before that, but I'm pretty sure I'm on the placebo, anyway). I'm sorry about the let down. These trials mess with people's emotions and lives, but it's how the process works at this time, and hopefully someday there will be so many new things available because of these trials that we will be able to live our lives and put our energy into facing all of life's other challenges. Keep trying, keep asking questions. Things are changing all the time.
