Re: Trials or experience with daratumumab or elotuzumab?

Thanks, Bar None. Your response is quite timely. He left today for Mayo to begin on a trial of ACP-196 and Pembrolizumab. His Mayo doctor has tried to get him into a trial of Daratumumab, but couldn't. This summer his labs were too bad (platelets and hemoglobin). Last month he underwent a cycle of D-PACE, and his labs are now in acceptable ranges. Many of the places that are listed as having Daratumumab for the trial have not received the actual drug yet, and do not know when they will!
