March 19, 2013
Ken had his MRI & PET Scan in Boston today...long story short, his tumor grew again this month, and has now surpassed the 25% growth allowed for on the trial. In light of the continued growth, the Dr.'s feel that the trial drug is ineffective, and are removing him from the clinical trial. We are not sure yet what the next step will be, the tumor is not "exploding" in growth yet, so we have some time to figure things out, and will most likely return to Dr. Mellinghoff in NYC to explore our options. I will update when I have further details.

Aww Jen & Ken, I'm sorry the trial didn't go well. Keeping you in our thoughts & hoping the right next step is apparent.
