Subject: Phone Interviews for Cancer Patients - Receive $75


At some point in the past you used the NexProfiler Treatment Option Tool for Cancer. At the time you registered for this treatment decision tool, you indicated that you would be interested in being contacted by NexCura, which operates the NexProfiler Tool for Cancer, for opportunities to participate in market research.

We recognize that dealing with cancer can be a difficult experience and that you may not want to participate in market research. If that is the case, please delete this e-mail.

We are writing to let you know that a research group will be conducting 50-minute phone interviews with cancer patients who have experienced a low platelet count (thrombocytopenia) as a result of chemotherapy treatment. The phone interviews will take place this week and next week. The research group is offering $75 to each patient who participates in a phone interview.

In order to participate in this interview, patients must meet the following criteria:

• Be between 18 and 70 years of age
• Diagnosed with cancer
• Treated with chemotherapy
• Experienced or been diagnosed with a low platelet count (thrombocytopenia), within the past year, as a result of your chemotherapy treatment

If you are unsure if you've experienced a low platelet count, you may have received one of the following interventions to treat the condition:

• Chemotherapy dose delay
• Chemotherapy dose reduction
• Chemotherapy change
• Chemotherapy discontinuation
• Platelet transfusion
• Neumega

Participation in these research interviews is limited and there are additional criteria needed to participate. In order to see if you qualify, you may contact NexCura at 1-877-963-9287 ext.131 or by email by simply replying to this email. Please provide us with a number where you may be reached during the day and the best time to call. If you wish to share this opportunity with others who may be eligible in your area, please have them contact NexCura by email or at the toll free number provided.
