tony111, I do not fault you for not being engaged in Ariad like many of the posters here, but a couple of clarifications are in order. First, Iclusig will be prescribed to patients that have basically failed all other lines of treatment. In other words, they will in all likelihood succumb to the disease. So, your statement that patients will be fearful in taking Iclusig when it is really their last choice is probably not true. Secondly, the pool of patients is much higher than 200 as you stated, and I would like to refer you to the Ariad CC on Friday for further details.
