Thanks, Henry, both for the soccer and prevention info. Will check out the soccer sites.

I had read this release along time ago but not carefully and never thought about it in regard to "prevention, but I can see the concept since in the treatment is given before the cancer is induced. Still, I would imagine the trial indication is for treatment and not "prevention." Is that correct? I could see it being used off label for high risk patients, especially if Congress passes the new law you mentioned. It would take a number of years, however, to show prevention efficacy in human beings.
