WHATS GOING ON
This Is An Emergency!
We rallied outside the FDA building in Rockville, Maryland on September 18th. Now there are buses riding around Rockville and Washington, D.C., further protesting the shenanigans that took place inside the FDA building, as well as outside.
The FDA has gotten caught up with Wall Street. While it is supposed to be busy with evaluating food and drugs, its employees just can't keep their eyes off the money. So that is how decisions are being made these days.

WE'LL BE BACK
These people traveled from all across the country to protest outside the FDA Building in Rockville, Maryland. The FDA has stopped a safe and effective treatment from getting to men who need it now. The treatment is called Provenge and it treats men who have late stage prostate cancer.
The FDA appointed a panel of experts to help it decide on the safety and efficacy of Provenge. That panel voted 17-0 that Provenge was safe. And it voted 13-4 that Provenge showed substantial evidence it worked. And yet the FDA delayed it. Now it could be a year, a year and a half or it could be three years. It could be forever.
These people will keeping coming back to Rockville and they hope others will join them until the courts, the FDA, Congress or somebody does something about this travesty.

Ted Girgus - Desperately Seeking Provenge
November 4th, 2007 | Posted by CTLTed posed with 3 of his 5 sons on Father’s Day 2007. He hopes he can spend a few more Father’s Days with them. But he needs help. Ted is suffering from late stage prostate cancer. Ted is seeking a Provenge, a safe and effective Immunotherapy voted overwhelmingly safe by an FDA Advisory Panel of experts. The FDA won’t let him have it, because of some “leaked” letters written by some severely conflicted doctors, one of whom is a scientific advisor for Proquest Investments and who has a stake in the competition. Ted has already undergone brachytherapy where radioactive seeds were implanted in his testicles to no avail, and he is currently undergoing horomone therapy. His cancer has metastacized outside of his protate gland and into his vertebrae. He refuses to take the only option open to him now, a chemotherapy, which is so toxic that most men refuse to take it. It would destroy whatever quality of life he has left. Please join us in helping Ted get access to Provenge before it is too late.
Hear Ted in his own words:
