      Hi Lizzie,

      One more thing…in order to participate in the compassionate ipi trial, you must have taken an earlier stage IV drug and failed…so dicarbazine is one, if she starts there first.  As I said, I took temodar, expensive but easier on the system..both have 20% success rate…hey, somebody has got to be in that number…it could be your mom…Best, Val
