Genasense combined with other drugs...not just dacarbazine (chemotherapy).
...the more I research, the more I find that Genasense is being used in several other drug applications. Pretty amazing, really.
Genasense Triple Combination Therapy in Advanced Melanoma Presented at Chemotherapy Foundation Symposium
“Our goal with this trial is to evaluate the synergy of Genasense with drugs other than dacarbazine that are currently used for treatment of patients with advanced melanoma,” commented Dr. Pavlick. “Genasense has already demonstrated significant benefit when combined with dacarbazine, and we are pleased to be participating in the confirmatory AGENDA trial. The early data from our new 3-drug study are highly encouraging, and we hope to extend these observations by incorporating the brief IV infusion schedule for Genasense that has recently been developed. This new regimen may offer an active, safe, and convenient treatment for patients with this devastating disease.”
