Question:
I've been researching recent clinical trials utilizing Thalidomide, and it sounds promising. The trials I have found to this point, though, are for brain, skin (kaposi's sarcoma), prostate, and breast cancer. My uncle has melanoma...we are looking for a thalidomide clinical trial which addresses this specifically or doesn't specify cancer type. I know it's a shot in the dark, but has anyone else out there been looking at this and found anything?
Answer:
There is infformation about prostate cancer clinical trails with
thalidomide at Rockville and Bethesda, Md. check out the site:

trial with thalidomide for mestatic melanoma, renal cell and ovarion and
breast cancers at the Royal Marsden in London Eng. Se:

being cut off by my email line size). Good luck. Susan
