This is the in-depth summary of treatment options that Ben Williams began years ago, and which I have taken over lately.  Download the 2017 update over at virtualtrials.com  , or click here for PDF download.   This can be discussed on Al Musella's BrainTumorTreatments yahoo group .  (Of course comments welcome here as well).

    Stephen - extremely helpful update. Thank you.

    1. Do the new results for Sativex suggest that Sativex is preferable to the "Rick Simpson"-like cannibis oil that many of us are taking?

    2. Are the MDNA55 results good enough to make it to your list of preferred trials in the library?

      Thanks Mike,
      I wouldn't assume that Sativex is preferable to higher dose "Rick Simpson" like protocols. Since the daily cannabinoid dosage tends to be higher in these concentrated cannabis oil protocols, it could be that they would lead to even better outcomes than those in Sativex + TMZ trial. Hard to say though, without a clinical trial to compare with.

      2. Yes I would rank MDNA55 as a preferred trial, and changed the color-code to red to reflect that (thanks for the reminder).
