CareToLive Awareness Campaign Week #3 — We Are Very Sad To Announce Another Member Died — Part I
April 15th, 2008 | Posted by CTL4/16/08 The Care To Live Awareness Campaign in the Rockville Gazette, continues to confront the FDA to address our Petition for the FDA to Reconsider their decision to delay Provenge in what was an unprecedented action by them to delay a treatment in an end stage disease where no other options exist, despite the fact that Provenge was voted 17-0 Safe and 13-4 Efficacious by an FDA Advisory Panel.
Please email, print and fax our ads to help increase awareness of the Provenge Debacle so we may reverse this tragedy. It is over a year since the Advisory Panel was convened. 30,000 American men die each year of prostate cancer. 1 in 6 men will get prostate cancer in their lifetimes. We need better, safer treatments NOW! The FDA needs to address the needs of the men with end stage prostate cancer, and allow them access to the immunotherapy Provenge IMMEDIATELY!
Stephen H. Study Died without ever receiving Provenge. Shame on those individuals at the FDA responsible for this genocide. They are so concerned about selling men drugs to enhance their sex lives, and have completely ignored the real needs of our men, the approval of drugs that have prolonged survival. Some men who received Provenge in trials are alive 6 years longer.

What can I say? Mr. Study’s story is heartrending, and it hits so close to home for me. I want to thank all who have worked so hard to get the story of the Provenge debacle out to the public and I hope all who stop by here at the website and read about it will help the cause with a donation to CaretoLive. They need your help. Thank you.

I just want to thank Care To Live and all the rest of the folks that are doing all they can to help people just like my father. We pray that this treatment comes available soon so that no one else has to die waiting and wondering what could have been.
Sincerely,
Stephen D. Study
