I agree, it's been a very slow pace so far - we'll be celebrating 3 years next month since the 2 patients got cured of their bladder cancer in the Phase I and since then no real progress. Hopefully things will speed up now with the 6th US site added, all they need is 9 more patients treated - how hard could that be, they could do it in one week for gawd sake

I think their problem was in the adjustment of the laser because it turns out that you need to change the frequency and the wavelength of the laser beam in order to reach deeper tissue affected by the tumor. I think that took them all this extra time. Now that it's been hopefully fixed they can go at it again

It will be interesting to see how the FDA approaches the protocol error. Re the patients that were removed, the FDA should "not" consider them in the final analysis imo...data would be invalid & wouldn't reflect the true CR rate. Though it would take longer, I agree the final analysis should only include data based on the corrected protocol. We shall see...

skyhawk1, The reason so many of us are old is because we have been in TLT for so many years. 9 years for me.
