To all: Can someone explain this part of the Fomivirsen press release?
"Results from trials in both newly-diagnosed patients and patients with advanced disease showed that fomivirsen produced prolonged delay in progression of CMV retinitis, with similar median times to progression (71 days in newly-diagnosed patients, 90 days in patients with advanced disease)."
Does CMV retinitis progress even if fomivirsen is used? Does it progress to blindness when fomivirsen is used? I thought fomivirsen stopped the progression of CMV retintis from earlier press releases I read on this drug. Comments?
