Bob L,

<<How are they going to get clinical approval without dosimetry when the phase III used it?>>

If the dosimetry doesn't guide the treatment, then it may be considered merely another assessment technique. Zevalin is given in a dosage independent of dosimetry in the PIII isn't it? The big caveat to this is if the data shows a significant difference in response to the set dosage based on dosimetry.

Bob L,

Thanks so much for the heads-up on the Zevalin paper! Very interesting stuff...

Not sure I agree on Zev toxicity being similar to Bex after my cursory view, but I need to study more. They mentioned 10% platelets < 10,000, where a recent number we got from Bex was 3%. But there may be some subtle differences in how AE's were reported.

Thanks again,
Gordon
