  FYI – A Houston site (St. Luke's) is starting right away. However, they could not get my mother on the expanded access protocol because she had not taken ipi, which her main oncologist said would be too toxic for her (she is elderly and has lots of liver mets). Please help get Merck to open up the protocol to Stage IV patients with very short time horizons.
