FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

ADVOCACY GROUP “CARE TO LIVE” BEGINS LATEST CAMPAIGN

CareToLive Continues To Enlighten the World to the Dastardly Deeds of the FDA

Starting today, Wednesday April 2, 2008, CareToLive has begun the process of placing weekly advertisements in the Rockville Gazette, in Rockville, Maryland. These ads will contain letters from patients, families of patients or physicians. New letters will appear each week until the FDA does the humane thing and approves Provenge for the patients. The letters will also be distributed by volunteers on the streets of Rockville and on the internet.

CareToLive highlights the FDA’s blatant refusal to allow access to Provenge to men who are dying from late stage prostate cancer.

The letters will be heartfelt appeals to the humanity of the FDA, who even now, after being provided with the evidence that the Provenge BLA process was corrupted, do nothing to remedy it.

The FDA continues to refuse to follow its own rules regarding Citizens’ Petitions and refuses to comply with the Freedom of Information Act. Eighty four (84) men die every day while the FDA argues it needs 20 more months to provide simple documents to CareToLive and more than 8 months have passed without action on the CareToLive Citizens’ Petition.

First the citizens of Rockville, the home of the FDA, will further awaken to the travesty that occurred in their town that resulted in the denial of Provenge to 26,000 AIPC patients who have since died. Next the world will know.
