Hi, I've had my eye on this trial for a while. Do you know where these are being conducted in NYC? According to clinicaltrials they're now recruiting at Bronx VA and not yet recruiting at 10029??? I was hoping it was Mt. Sinai where my doctor is but I don't think it is. Do you know where in the city they'll be??? And if there's no contact number how I'd go about trying to qualify?
Thanks!!!
The best way to find out about this is to go to clinicaltrials.gov and type in NCT 01359644. The trial that comes up is the original trial. The one you are looking for is an extension of the original trial. You will need to call the sites in Florida that are listed there to find out if and when they are recruiting for the BMS/PSI EXTENSION. The study is for GT 1 either triple failures or naives. Some are recruiting now. Some in a month or so.
Can you share anymore info on the Bms/psi trial set for March?
I am desperately looking to get into an all oral study. Geno 1a F3 so
I do not have alot of time. I live in Florida
Thanks for the good wishes. The trial I anticipate taking is the Bms/Psi for 1a treatment naives. I'm not anticipating any difficulties with the screening, so it should be all systems go in March!
I definately will. The trial your talking about is the PSI 7977 and BMS790052 for 1a or triple fails? My Dr''s office is already screening if so. Good luck..I feel very grateful to have been able to clear the virus thus far with so lillte discomfort. Time will tell.. Good luck!!!
Congratulations on finishing this deeply encouraging trial and thanks for keeping us informed of your progress. Please let us know how the monthly checks play out. I have a very good chance of participating in the next form of this trial - the 12 week version expected to start in March. So my interest in your post treatment progress is very strong and I'm really appreciative of any new information you can communicate. Best wishes!
I am going right now for my last visit of the PS1 7977 and BMS 790052. Except for some minor fatigue in the beginning I have been side effect free. I also went undetected at 7 day labs. ( I will start a 6 month once a month check to make sure I remain und SVR.
I appreciate that you're having success. Side effects with the PSI are very strong and unpleasant? ? I pray that I may be contemplated by one of the new tx!
my best, Lia
I am currently in week 20 of the Atomic trial (12 weeks of Inf, Riba and PSI, then 12 weeks of PSI only).
All I can say is the 12 weeks I was on Inf and Riba were pretty hard to take. It was getting worse every week.
The results so far of using PSI-7977 are really good. I went from 10 million viral load to zero in first week of treatment.
My advice would be to get in the trial if you can.
is right. Here in Brazil it starts after Carnival. I will also have to go to another city, do all the tests again, except the biopsy. Day 26 I'm going to Botucatu city, where the study is going to happen, to bring the proposal / referral from my doctor.hopefully I can...!!!
gonnabhepcfree não mencionou isso, mas eu acredito que ela é GT 3 e só levou uma semana para ser UND se bem me lembro com PSI 7977 e BMS 790052. Ela pode corrigir esta informação, se necessário. By the way, eu tive que sair da cidade no meio da minha seleção para entrar no PSI 7977 ensaios. Não foi um problema. Eles gostam de acomodar seus participantes para experimentos. Todos em seu país sabe que você não pode interferir com o carnaval em 21 de fevereiro !!!!!!
gonnabhepcfree did not mention it but I believe she is GT 3 and it only took her ONE WEEK to be UND as I recall with PSI 7977 and BMS 790052. She can correct this information if necessary.
Yes, as I recall you are f3 Lia, so you and your docs do need to take that into consideration as you research the the PSI-7977 trial, the number of months before it starts, and all of the details of the trial (what are the chances of you being on a placebo, how long will the trial last, will you be able to take rescue meds to stay on the Hep C drugs if you become anemic or neutropenic, if it turns out you are on a placebo would you then get the PSI-7977 drug afterward, etc.).

I hope by then my not increase the degree of fibrosis and I don't get cirrhotic ... but the doctors know what they do ... I think ...btw, I'll try and wait ... meanwhile enjoying the carnival in Brazil ... no alcohol ...
hugs, my best to all

I know. So they are at least going to do the BMS/PSI extension at your site and my site. There are 4 arms. Two for naives and two for failures to the triple. I don't know if all the original sites will be doing the extension.

My understanding is that they may be screening now but they won't be starting until March or so because they dont have the drugs out yet. Ran out I guess.
My coordinatior told me yesterday that they are going to be starting a new study with our study drugs for geno 1a naive and people who failed triple. I believe she said another for just four weeks but not 100 percent on that one.
