Andy Battaglia:
There's still no update about when or where the trials will start to recruit patients.

https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02604433?term=luspatercept&rank=1

nice friend:
Thanx for the link , Andy .... here is something what the site say regarding recruitment :

Sharmin:
My understanding is that trials may start this spring.  The trials will be double blind.  2/3 of the patients will reveive Luspatercept and 1/3 a placebo.  Patients who are selected will be ones who live in close proximity to the clinic from which the trials are being run because they will be required to attend the centre every 3 weeks for repeat doses and assessment. 

nice friend:
Sharmin,
it mean's no chance for me to participate in this do or die attempt :D ...

Andy Battaglia:
We have to wait and see where trials are run, but it is expected that this drug will not take a long time to reach the market once trials are concluded.
