What will be different in Dr. Faustman and Dr. Nathan's human clinical trial is that they will be using multiple dosing of BCG in humans at an increasing...
Sue, can we agree that these trials will not proceed until the "automated assay" is completed? Did Faustman have this automated assay during the mouse trials? ...
The answer in short is because if a mouse dies, nobody cares. Just think if the "small human trial" was a failure either due to huge complications or due to...
Patsy, I think you are misunderstanding what I am inferring. The point I am making is why spend so much time and money on a automation process that, in the end...
The procedure to separate and count the targeted T cells from whole blood samples in humans takes 1 ½ days by hand. Seeing that they plan to ultimately take...
Sue, thanks for the info. I am still baffled that they chose to spend time and money on the automation process, when it may be a moot point. If they can count...
They have to automate the process. They cannot monitor even a small group of people effectively day after day during the trial without automation. I would...
I am new to this group. I have been waiting for 20+ years to see a cure or a real hope of a cure...What is happening seems to be faster than the ADA who seems...
From Lynne Murphy at MGH: "Keep checking our website www.faustmanlab.org for updated information. We will also be informing all individuals in our database...
If BCG is successful and safe, I would welcome taking it every day until the second agent is identified. We need a cure NOW. This is an absolutely miserable...
Perhaps if BCG is successful in temporarily halting the autoimmune attack, then millions of the research money raised would start funnelling into the search...
Forget about the fundraisers jumping on board at that point. IF BCG halts the autoimmune attach I would like to see the government step in an recognize that...
I know this isn't the perfect place to ask this question, but i also know there are a lot of Join Lee Now folks here, so I'd thought I'd ask this: What human...
Good afternoon all, Greetings from The Iacocca Foundation. We've been preparing for the Iacocca Celebrity Golf Tournament, which is scheduled for May 2 and 3...
I'm getting extremely impatient with the "No News" coming out of the Faustman camp. There are many, many encouraging developments happening in other arenas,...
This is just my opinion - but when I don't hear any news, I take that as bad news. I have a feeling that this great technique in mice does not ring true in...
Hey Everybody, This is my 2 cents, because I have FULL FAITH that Dr. Faustman is on the right track in her concept of correcting the attack on islets, and...
I just spoke with Lynn Murphy in Dr Faustman's lab, and she told me that everything looks good for the human clinical trials to start "beginning of 2008". She...
Unlike some folks, you have been paying attention and are likely correct as far as the timing of phase 1 clinical trials. Info is posted on Dr. Faustman's...
Yes, there are many encouraging research projects that have immerged during the last year or so. It is most exciting that many of them support Dr. Faustman's...
Anthony, You may be correct. However, given that there have been no human trails yet, and therefore we do not really know if it will translate to humans yet,...
Thank you Patsy. I am a person living with this horrible disease 24/7. And when there was so much chatter a year ago about this research and to watch that...
I suppose that I haven't had diabetes long enough yet to be frustrated. I was only diagnosed four years ago, and up until that time, I was one of the ones who...
I think some kind of weekly updates or so would be very good for those of us hoping this will work in humans. Even if it was just an update on the progress of...
I personally spoke on the phone just yesterday to Lynn Murphy at Dr Faustman's lab, and she told me that the trials should be in the early part, or beginning...
Also, there is a great interview on National Public Radio featuring Dr Faustman and Dr Nathan. It helps me just to hear them speaking, makes it more real. You...
