Re: Pre-dosing with drug to screen patients for trials

>The closest analogy to the design I was suggesting is the trial that Pfizer used for Maraviroc where the patients were screened by a tropism assay (from Monogram) and only those that responded went on to Maraviroc dosing, the non-responders were not included in the dosing.<

In the maraviroc trial, patients were pretested for the relevant mutation, not for a clinical response to the drug in question.
