Re: [Ewings Sarcoma] Help with recurrent Ewings

Garrett,
Would you mind letting us know if the vincristine and
topotecan is working on controling the tumors. We are
looking for any drug to control them so then we will
be able to either do a stem cell, radiation or
surgery. Our doctor wanted them to be in control
first. Thanks, Melissa
We are trying trial drugs right now. It is a scary
thing not knowing if they are working or not.
