Thank you for your reply. I do not know what a "pm" is...I'm new at this. I tried to find a link to Nic but I did not have any luck. Any suggestions? I was surprised to learn that researchers have a hard time getting stage IV lung cancer patients involved with clinical trials. I feel I don't have much to lose and a lot to gain as well as help others. Thanks for any help. This is the third website I have been on looking for a connection to someone who has first hand knowledge of this drug. Your reply is the first response I have had, so many thanks. Tkane

I am new to this site. After being diagnosed with stage IV NSCLC in March of 08, I participated in a clinical trial with Tarceva. This drug worked miracles on the cancer throughout my body. But in January of 08, a tumor in my right lung started to increase. I was taken off the Tarceva and enrolled in another clinical trial with xl-647. I am looking for anyone else who has been on this drug. I have scans on Wednesday- April 16th to see if this drug has had any affect on the tumor. tkane
