The Latest Update from Pat G about Gene Therapy
Andy Battaglia:
No one can give a time line for when to expect this to happen. Long term observation of the patients will be required and more extensive trials done before it would be readily available. However, as with all new drugs and procedures, some patients will be able to take advantage of trials. Healthy patients will get preference in all trials, so it is an incentive to take care of the health now.

Thanks Andy for sharing a great news....
We all are waiting for that day and i hope GOD with us...and soon we will achive.......
Well where these trials are going on? is it the trail conducted all over the world or in US only?
Thanks
Andy Battaglia:
They are hoping to eventually run trials in at least 3 or 4 countries. I know that India is under consideration, and I believe Greece will also be, because some of the early work has been done in Greece. Lena has previously mentioned this team and they are working together with Dr Sadelain's team.
