TG02 clinical trial - anyone have information about it?

by cgrundy on Wed Nov 19, 2014 1:16 pm

My husband has not had any luck with the standard treatment and is looking at starting this study:

Phase I Study of TG02 Citrate in Patients With Advanced Hematological Malignancies

Is anyone on this trial or does anyone have any feedback on side effects and how well it works?

Thank you all for your time.

Cgrundy,

See:

"TG02 - potential new myeloma treatment," Beacon forum thread started Apr 3, 2012.

KG Barnhart, "Dual Inhibition Of Mcl-1 By The Combination Of Carfilzomib and TG02 In Multiple Myeloma," ASH 2013 Annual Meeting Abstract # 3171

Out of curiosity, did your multiple myeloma specialist suggest this particular trial?

There are so many multiple myeloma clinical trials out there. My philosophy regarding them has always been that I would rely on the recommendations of a couple of specialists in order to figure out the best ones for me, should I ever need to consider them. Just curious which trials that specialists are gravitating towards at any given point in time.
