Zaini:
Still a long way to go,but in the end,may be it will be worth waiting for.

Sharmin:
My hope is that the treatment will be available in the next couple of years.  What do you think the likelihood of that is?

Andy Battaglia:
Sharmin,

We should add this to our list for NYC. If possible, we should see if we could talk to Dr Sadelain for a few minutes and see what advice he has as far as what will make a patient a good candidate for gene therapy.

Lena:
Andy,

that would be really interesting. Evangelia Yannaki from Thessaloniki, Greece, will also be at the conference and give a lecture. She is the doctor responsible for gene therapy in Greece, working under Dr. Stamatoyannopoulos and remember that in Thessaloniki the first phase has been completed and in 2010 will proceed to the second and final phase.

Lena.

Manal:
Very interesting Lena.

Has anything been published about the results of the first phase??
