Bob, It seems to me that in order to make a true direct comparison you need to use both drugs in the same patient at the same time...something obviously impossible to do. Anything less than that is open to the argument of variation among patient characteristics as no two are exactly alike and even the individual patient's characteristics change over time. So, all we have to go on is what we have right now...I'm sure later studies will be made to further refine comparisons. The available facts show that in refactory cases, Bexxar shows a 70% response versus 46% on Zev. Zev gives rise to a fair number of cases of neutropenia and thrombocytopenia while Bexxar does not. I'll leave the medical theory as to why the adverse effect profile favors Bexxar to someone who knows..I do not <G>. Best regards, Walter
