It was on the news yesterday that temodar will now be available in the uk as a 1st line treatment.

I tried to get this for my husband last year but I was unable to . Thankfully he has done ok on pcv chemo untill now. His tumour is now growing again so they are going to try temodar as a second line treatment. The hospital seemed surprised that he had tolerated 9 cycles of pcv. Hopefully the temodar will keep the tumour from growing as quickly.

I'm glad that at last new patients can get the treatment that those in other places in the world have been getting and they don't have to fight for what they feel is the best treatment.

Does anyone know of temodar been used as a second line treatment ?
How did they find it?
