Do you have any knowledge of any longer ?maybe from the first clinical trials ? Best to you all ,john. John Bham uk Mon, 21 Apr 2008 00:00:00 GMT John, Your doing well, congratulations. You say you've been on Temodar 17 months and if your doctor says your in remission because your having clear MRI's then I believe you are lucky and doing well. Most of the data out there is outdated and being 51 I would say age and overall previous good health play a big role in success rates. Your a trooper to keep going on Temodar for that long, I hope it hasn't been too tough on you. Keep up the good fight John.
