Hi there. I just saw your request for information on mantle cell lymphoma.
There are different treatment regimes. My mother had a great deal of success
with CHOP chemotherapy. Autologous bone marrow transplants are being looked
at as a treatment option. From what I understand, MCL was only identified
and classified in the last few years. Dana Farber Institute in Boston ran a
clinical trial using Rituxin, a monoclonal antibody- which showed some
promise.
I would be happy to correspond with you. There is a Lymphoma Foundation -
I don't have the information available right now- that may be of some help.
Also the Leukemia Foundation.
Most important to your fight is positive attitude! Please feel free to
keep in touch.
By the way, I just happen to be on someone else's computer so you should
reply to tas@rjglaw.com. God Bless.
