Thumbs up Penn State Hershey Med Onc. response

For those of you who are interested in the nano particle delivery of chemo research underway at Penn State Hershey Med. here is what my onocologist had to say regarding same. Firstly, she is familiar with Mark Kester at PSU. She believes the team of Kester/Adair are a long way from even a phase I trial. She did promise to keep me updated, and she said that many researchers are in hot pursuit of the nano particles theory for delivering targeted chemo. She was very positive in her opinion of the research so........fingers crossed!
