        Sorry to hear your story.

        I would suggest the Eisai drug as the first course. 

        I did ipi in 2006.  I think there is great promise in that, but you can always go down that path if the E-7080 drug does not pan out. 

        I have done Interferon and ILK in a bio chemo, suprising that they are not offering bio-chemo (though that that damn near killed me last year). 

        I am currently considering the same drug, as my mets have come back in the bone.  My decision point is next week as well. 

        Best of luck to you, Mark
