Since you are reduced to taking sample sizes of one, here is another. And this one is second-hand, too.

I'm told that at least one patient in the Bexxar study, who did not have a significant response, went on to try Rituxan and had a good response to that. This person is swimming against the current of conventional wisdom, under which we all assume that the hot monoclonals will be better than the cold ones. It just shows that patients are individuals and that NHL varies greatly among individuals. It also shows, in my opinion, that there will be plenty of room for competition among the new treatments as doctors and patients work out which works best for whom.
