I have G542x and after many years of testing, if a tx patient can take it, i would think about it. I no longer get excited about new drugs. I use to be the cheerleader type. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

WAAAAHOOOOOO, I have been waiting for so long for this to come out and its only a few years away, whoopi, Im excited right now, CFF.org site needs to update their drug pipeline, cause its still saying PTC124 is in phase 2.



Wow 2009, man I have to wait that long to get it. It seesms like forever but I know that it will be hear in a blink of an eye.



Wow, for those of you that are curious as to why Im so excited, is because I qualify for this drug, I have two non sense mutations that are the same G542X.



Ive printed this off and next time I see my doc, Im sharing the news with him. He also knows how bad want to take this drug too!</end quote></div>

Get involved in the trials.

Hi to the forum!
My two daughters are having the R1162X mutation together with the classical DeltaF508 mutation.
I have been following all the research made with PTC124 (only for premature or so-called nonsense mutations!) for the last few years.
After reading a lot of medical and scientific news I am somenow getting hints that this new medication for some reason does not really help with the nonsense mutation R1162X.
Can anyone give me more information on this?
Any answer would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Henry
